Squid does not know of documents or pages, only HTTP objects.

A frameset or page consists of very many individual HTTP objects,
composed together for display by your browser:

  1. The frameset definition
  2. The HTML objects in each frame (one per frame)
  3. The embedded image objects within each HTML object (one per unique
image URL).
  4. Any referenced stylesheet definitions
  5. Any other inlined objects in the displayed page


Each of these is cached independently by Squid. If one is dynamic or
uncacheable only that one is not cached.


See access.log when opening the page. There is one line per HTTP request
to Squid. (clear your browser cache first to get a better view of what
is being downloaded).
