Is there a way of configuring the HTTP Headers put out by the server when rendering a page. Specifically I need to add an Expires header (cf Apache mod_expires) as there appears to be a cacheing proxy server between me and many of my users that is not allowing them to see news items recently added to a home page. The meta tag equivalent method is not working.

An insights would be appreciated. Would setting pta^.responseHeaders just before the page is rendered do the trick, and if so what is the best place to do it?
