serverside controlled cache_max_age #193

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Hi there,

first of all, thank you very much for this fantastic work, which is totally 
easy to understand and to use. I've bought a wordpress-theme, which included 
your thumb.php (v1.25), so I looked up the source for your website and found 
finally an update to 1.28, which it includes the cache_max_age-Variable... yeah 
:-) BUT I need this serverside controlled.

So far it's only possible to clear the cache after a specified number of files. 
But my images are dynamically generated, and refreshes their inputs every 
single hour. So both possibilities to clear the cache are not good for my case.

Could you please integrate something like this in an future version? Thank you!

Regards
Sebastian

Options All -Indexes
Header unset Cache-Control:
Header append Cache-Control: "max-age=3600, public"

Put this in your .htaccess

I've already added the cache-control in the image-header, so the 
thumb.php-script will look into this and refresh the cache every single hour?

Thanks for the feedback. I've modified timthumb so that cache is purely time 
based now. Having it time based as well as number of files based was confusing. 
Also number of files is meaningless if you don't know their size. 

Also changed cacheClean routine to be at start of execution so that the first 
visitor after FILE_CACHE_TIME_BETWEEN_CLEANS expires doesn't see a stale image.
