Blackboard support asked whether it works properly with a 'text' menu rather
than buttons? Does this work for anyone else?

Hi,
We have also had this issues since 6.3
I believe that the menu caching problem is just one of the consequences of
the larger content caching problem.
All Blackboard pages are wrongly be served with an "HTTP/1.0 304 Not
Modified" header.
However we have found a workaround for the menu caching.
We click the Refresh Link in the menu frame (not the one on the browser),
The updated menu will then refresh correctly and this behaviour is
consistent.
Not sure that all site will have the side panel configured to show the
refresh link I am referring to.
The one I am meaning is the two circular green arrows next to a link labeled
refresh.
We are advising all users to click this link whenever they change the menu
until the content header problem is resolved.
