  32. What I’d like to cover today:

  33. Some terms we’ll encounter:

  34. Include some content from another URL? <esi:includesrc=“/hot/content)“ ttl=“30s“/>

  35. Pass an ID? <esi:includesrc="my-page?id=$(HTTP_COOKIE{'user-id'})"/>

  36. Want to tailor for browsers? <esi:choose> <esi:when test="$(HTTP_USER_AGENT{'os'})=='WIN' & $(HTTP_USER_AGENT{'browser'})=='MSIE' & $(HTTP_USER_AGENT{'version'}) matches '^6\.[0-9]+'"> <h1>Wow. IE 6? You really need to upgrade.</h2> </esi:when> </esi:choose>

  37. Downstream cache headers? <esi:choose> <esi:when test="!$(HTTP_EXPIRES) & !$(HTTP_CACHE_CONTROL)"> $add_header('Expires', $http_time($time() + 36000)) $add_header('Cache-Control', 'max-age=24h') </esi:when> </esi:choose>
