Using php you can put this code to your head section of website:

header('Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT');
header('Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate');
header('Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0', FALSE);
header('Pragma: no-cache');

Try this meta tag

<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL" CONTENT="NO-CACHE" />

header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
//header("Content-Type: application/xml; charset=utf-8");

Set the expires header to a past date. It will only be relevant for "clearing the cache" of a particular page..... if the browser wants to. Theres little serverside code can force on the client when it comes to this sort of stuff. It can basically only make recommendations.
