HTML Cache External Images Only
In process of trying to optimize http://www.dealer24x7.com/Used/1/Inventory/ the recommendation we are getting from google's page speed insights (https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights) is to leverage caching.
What meta tag do we need to use to specify caching images (local and external) longer (say 3 months) and caching the HTML of the page for only a week?
p.s.
The goal is to leverage public cache pools by using
<META HTTP-EQUIV="CACHE-CONTROL"

Unfortunately some (or even a good majority) of the images come from third party servers that I have no control over
Image files don't have META tags or any other HTML in them. That would have to be done on the server. Here's a page about doing in Apache: http://www.chicagostyleseo.com/2010/04/googles-need-for-speed-use-cache-and-htaccess-to-speed-up-your-site/ I don't know how to set this up in IIS. I that in the other comment.
If they're from third party servers, there is nothing you can do about it.

So is there an HTML tag on the HTML page that I can use to say cache this page and its contents (local and external images) for 7 days?
No.

While it aint pretty, it does the job
Glad You appreciate that script....
Who needs pretty, when your sneaky.
You could Save the external image to a local FOlder.
Add a Check to see if the File exists before the PHP
gets the external Image.
