Abstract
This disclosure provides various embodiments of systems, software, and computerized methods for reducing the number of server requests sent to a web server. In one aspect, the software generates a file reference uniquely identifying a version of a file capable of being cached by a requester. The file reference can comprise a network-addressable location of the version of the cacheable file and a parameter uniquely identifying the version of the cacheable file, where the parameter is separated from the network-addressable location of the version of the cacheable file. The software can further embed the file reference into a web page file, and send the web page file in response to a request for the web page. The parameter may include a plurality of data elements, such as a second instance of the file name, a timestamp, or a version number of the cacheable file.
