    If you have mod_headers installed for Apache, you can just do something like this in your .htaccess or .conf file:

    Header set Cache-Control "public, max-age=2592000"

    <ifModule mod_expires.c>
    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresDefault A1
    ExpiresByType audio/mpeg A5184000
    </ifModule>

    ExpiresActive On
    ExpiresDefault A1
    # Set up caching on media files for 2 month
    <FilesMatch "\.(ico|mp3)$">
    ExpiresDefault A5184000
    Header append Cache-Control "public"
    </FilesMatch>



    Is this correct ??


    or should i use


    <FilesMatch "\.(ico|pdf|flv|jpe?g|png|gif|js|mp3|swf)$">
    Header set Cache-Control "public,max-age=2592000"
    </FilesMatch>
