When using Google Chrome, I navigate to a URL of an ASP.NET website after activating the DOM inspector (F12). By selecting the Network tab, I am able to view the requested resources along with their status, timeline, and more. Upon subsequent requests, some items show a status of '304 Not modified' while others say '(from cache)', such as .js, .css, and image files.
I always assumed that all CSS and images are cached, especially when requesting the page right away. However, I'm curious if these two different status messages mean the same thing - could someone provide clarification?
