Mootools Request() works only once per session IE9

Issue:
I have a Mootools Request object which sends a GET request to a PHP script. The script returns an array of IDs. In every browser except IE each time a new instantiation of the Request object is made it hits the PHP backend script - no problem. BUT with IE it only every hits the PHP script once per browser session. If I clear the cache it flows through to the backend again OK, but after a browser restart or cache refresh.

Question:

Note:

Here's my code:

requestIDs : function() {
        new Request({
            url : "/identity/idGenerator.php?generate_ids",
            method : "get",
            onSuccess : function(response) {
                this.container.set('html', '');
                var idList = response.split(",");
                console.log(idList.join(","));
            }.bind(this)
        }).send();
    }
});

Use method: 'post' to prevent IE from caching.

You need to prevent IE from caching the request, here is one solution.
And the right solution which is built in mootools is initializing the Request with the config param noCache:true

var myRequest = new Request({...
                             ...
                             noCache:true,
                             ...
                             ...);
