Angular IE Caching issue for $http

 All the ajax calls that are sent from the IE are cached by Angular and I get a 304 response for all the subsequent calls. Although the request is the same, the response is not going be the same in my case. I want to disable this cache. I tried adding the cache attribute to $http.get but still it didn't help. How can this issue be resolved?



Instead of disabling caching for each single GET-request, I disable it globally in the $httpProvider:

myModule.config(['$httpProvider', function($httpProvider) {
    //initialize get if not there
    if (!$httpProvider.defaults.headers.get) {
        $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get = {};    
    }    

    // Answer edited to include suggestions from comments
    // because previous version of code introduced browser-related errors

    //disable IE ajax request caching
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['If-Modified-Since'] = 'Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT';
    // extra
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['Cache-Control'] = 'no-cache';
    $httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['Pragma'] = 'no-cache';
}]);
