Chrome caching issues

Reported by i...@money4yourmotors.com, Mar 14 2017 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/56.0.2924.87 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Apply a CSS change on a webpage
2. Change will not appear
3. Change will only appear with a F5 hard refresh

What is the expected behavior?
Webpages should refresh the cache without a hard refresh within Chrome.

What went wrong?
We updated our webpage and users could not see change due to this caching issue.

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 56.0.2924.87  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version:

Could you please provide a net-internals log of this happening, and tell us which resource is the one you expect not to be cached?  Instructions:  https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/for-testers/providing-network-details

It's most likely Chrome is behaving correctly.  Unless you have headers indicating a resource shouldn't be cached at all, Chrome will reuse resource on soft-reloads.  End users often use reload when a page is failing to load due to network issues, and the current soft-reload behavior is targeted at that use case.

Also, could be clarify:  Is the CSS in question being re-used (When you don't want it to be) just on soft reloads, or also on new navigations?

I guess issue 612701?

Just a reminder that we're hoping for more information from you as mentioned in c#1.  Could you upload a network internals dump (see https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/for-testers/providing-network-details ) taken while reproducing this problem?  Without that information we'll be unable to make progress on this and need to close the bug.

Closing due to lack of followup.  Feel free to file a new bug if you still have the issue, with the requested log.
