Since you asked "in JavaScript" I'll add that you need to use a different URL each time you view the document in JavaScript. E.g.

<a href="/a-document" onclick="this.href += '?' + new Date()">

(this is far from robust, it just illustrates the basic principle of the technique)

You'd only really do it this way if you were unable to control the server (e.g. if you aren't the owner).

Set content-expiration header in your response.

    var cache = HttpContext.Curent.Response.Cache;
    cache.SetExpires(DateTime.UtcNow.AddDays(-1));
    cache.SetValidUntilExpires(false);
    cache.SetRevalidation(HttpCacheRevalidation.AllCaches);
    cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
    cache.SetNoStore();
