Joe & Mike,

I don't think you can rely on the meta tags to determine whether the page
should be cached. If you do use the tags, this is what I would use for IE:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="-1">

If this were a Servlet I would use something like for the HTTPServletResponse:
response.setHeader("Pragma", "No-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "No-cache");
response.setDateHeader("Expires",1);
