Web Development -- Not Having to Clear your Cache Each Time

Working with sensitive files that require the cache to be cleared each time... how do I tell Firefox and Chrome to clear my cache each time I refresh the page and/or not cache to begin with?

Many thanks!

Also, reloading the page with Cmd-Shft-R (sorry, that's for Mac, I guess it's Ctrl-Shft-R for Windows) seems to avoid using the cache.

For Firefox, there is an Add-on called 'Web Developer'. Among many useful features, it has a 'Disable Cache' option that's easy to toggle on and off.

you could also set HTTP headers (or used the in-page <meta http-equiv= equivalents, for HTML) to disallow caching of those files.

In firefox type about:config in your address bar and set 'network.http.use-cache' to false.
