I'm looking to clear the client cache in JavaScript. Isn't it possible through running a function that selects the proper keys? Is there another way?

This is simply not available via javascript. Were such a thing possible it wouldn't be possible very long simply because too many web sites would abuse their users by continually flushing the user's cache in a misguided plan to protect their content.

What I'm trying to do is not have a user be able to click on a link to view a page of a passworded site after he/she has logged out. Any tips??

i agree with you Roy
oneself there are ways to prevent the page from logging in the cache at all, would that be of help?

For example meta tags? Which would be the best one to use? Or is there another way?

Yes i was talking about meta tags, if you go to the homepage of this website, you will see them in use.

hmmm, seems like you have a password checking via javascript in your site. You should have used server-side authentication in the first place. That will solve your problem.
