<para>
Attempts to cache the sent entity by its last modification date.
</para>
<para>
If the supplied argument is greater than 0, it is handled as timestamp
and will be sent as date of last modification. If it is 0 or omitted,
the current time will be sent as Last-Modified date. If it's negative,
it is handled as expiration time in seconds, which means that if the
requested last modification date is not between the calculated timespan,
the <literal>Last-Modified</literal> header is updated and the actual body will be sent.
</para>
<para>
A log entry will be written to the cache log if the
&link.http.configuration; <literal>http.log.cache</literal>
is set and the cache attempt was successful.
