First off, you'll want this line last. It will match anything, and make
the following refresh_patterns superfluous.

I don't think you want both "reload-into-ims" and "ignore-reload". The
former is only useful if the server supplies Last Modified headers, and
the latter should ignore the client's no-cache request out right.

What headers does the application server supply with said images, css
and the page itself. You might need to add "ignore-no-cache",
"ignore-no-store" and/or "ignore-private" (or even better, fix the
application server to send out cache friendly headers).
