Question

images generated from db are not getting cached on browser., do i missing something ?

Answer 1

"The caching of images in the end user's browser is unrelated to the way in which the images are stored on the server. When outputting a blob (including an image), Q2A adds an HTTP header to encourage caching at the client end (see qa-blob.php)." quoting gidgreen

you are totally correct. i already seen that header. But images generated from database don't show "304 Not Modified". For other images its working fine.

It uses the max-age directive, which tells the browser to cache the image for 30 days. In this case no Last Modified value is needed.
