It's not actually a "No Cache" option you want for the headers but rather 
an Expires one. See below for an example set of headers...

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2003 17:27:02 GMT
Server: Crazy Perl Script that doesn't use CGI
Expires: Wed, 26 Mar 2003 17:27:03 GMT
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1

Simply print your headers like the above and then print a blank line prior 
to outputting the content.
