I have drupal 5.* setup on http://radio.isg.si.

I want to have enabled site wide caching system, but for some content, which is actually multilingual block and shows the current song played (with my snippet) on the internet radio, i want caching _disabled_.

By my understanding drupal's cache system caches whole pages and since part of the page is this also this block, it's not possible to have block not cached and everything else under cache?

Basically I'm looking for solution which would allow me to have certain parts of the page (my snippets) generated on the fly and others from cache tables.

Please help me with suggestions.
I'm thinking about moving "Now playing" block out of drupal, maybe do some sort of include('my_outside_playlist_generation_script_EN.php') in drupals block but this would still make the result of this script cached... :-(

Tnx 4 your time :-)

Bump.

the CacheExclude module. Haven't tried it, and it's talking about excluding whole pages from the cache, but reading the code and issues there could help you a bit further.
