[squid-users] Squid not refreshing cache for some URL's

I've got a problem with my squid cache not refreshing for certain urls like;

   http://www.bom.gov.au/weather/national/charts/synoptic.shtml

If I remove the proxy settings from the client it gets the latest chart. Also if I stop
squid and remake the cache dirs (squid -z) then the latest chart is available via the
proxy. Box is running Fedora core 1 with squid 2.5.stable3.0

The squid conf is pretty much as delivered nothing special added (or required).

I believe that the page is sending a

    "<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache">" in the page

But the proxy server is not honouring that.

I have not enabled reload_into_ims and my refresh pattern statement looks like

     refresh_pattern -i ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080
     refresh_pattern -i ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440
     refresh_pattern -i . 0 20% 1440

Any Cluesticks?
