cache : flashvars vs querystring

Hey..i was wondering..

If i use querystring with a swf .. like www.mydomain/myflash.swf?message=hi , then a new flashfile will be downloadet (so not cahched).. if i use flashvars instead, will that let the browser use the cache of the swffile? so it wont be doenloaded over and over again?

oke. i can answer that myself now.

The next iteration: FlashVarsMacromedia recognized that the URL variables approach to loading data really isn’t acceptable, since it prevents browsers from using the cached copy of a .swf file. Consequently, with the release of Flash MX and the Flash Player version 6, they added support for a new construct known as FlashVars which can be used to accomplish the same task of passing in variables when a .swf file loads, but without the unwanted side effect of forcing the browser to download the .swf file again.
