Abstract
An approach is provided for providing client-side caching in network communication. A client-side caching module receives a request, from a device, for a scripting file associated with web content, the scripting file supporting client-side caching at the device. The client-side caching module identifies that the request is received over a connection supporting connection reuse. The client-side caching module determines whether the request is a first-time request. If the request is a first time request, the client-side consistency module collects session configuration information for the web content from the device, specifies session variables in the scripting file based on the session configuration information, and initiates a subsequent request for the scripting file over the connection. If the request is a subsequent request, the client-side caching module marks the session variables in the scripting file as cacheable at the device, and causes, at least in part, transmission of the scripting file to the device.
