From Luke Jackson

Summary

This is an extension to the MediaWiki that creates "BreadCrumbs" of the links you visit within the MediaWiki.

I can't recall where I found this extension and a Google search did not locate the owner. I am posting it as an Unknown work. If you are the owner please contact me and I will give you credit. :)

  /*
    Let's 'touch' the page to invalidate its cache.
    The code below is slightly identical to Title::invalidateCache().
    Even though invalidateCache() sets cur_touched to 'now', we are still
    in the process of creating and rendering the page itself and the 
    page will be cached only once it is done. At the end of the day the
    cache would always end up newer than cur_touched, defeating the whole
    purpose of calling invalidateCache().
    The trick here is to set cur_touched in the future, something not too
    intrusive, say 'now' + 120 seconds, provided that we expect the cached
    page to be created within 120 secs after this extension code has been
    executed. That way, cur_touched remains 'fresher' than the cache, and
    the page is always re-created dynamically.
