Clearing CacheMemory of WebBrowser

I want to clear the Cache of a WebBrowser control dynamically in Windows Phone 7.1 using C#. Previously selected images are loading again in my WebBrowser, has anyone ran into this before?

For clearing images this code can be helpfull to you.

BitmapImage bitmapImage = image.Source as BitmapImage;
bitmapImage.UriSource = null;
image.Source = null;

This works. happy coding

Clearing Cache in WP7.1 is not possible. The workaround can be to force the browser to load fresh page each time. This can be accomplished in many ways such as:
- Using False Query i.e. Passing a random parameter in location of web page like /page.html?q=5
- Using tags based methods to prevent caching (google it)
- passing no-cache headers from server itself

On Windows Phone 8 you can use the extension method ClearInternetCacheAsync.

This won't work on WP7.1 however. See another StackOverflow question that deals with that.
