It depends on what the page is - some servers will not let their pages be
cached. ). Try it with a page like http://squid.nlanr.net/ and see if that
gets cached.

It also depends what your various directives in squid.conf like
refresh_pattern, no_cache etc. are.

And if you do a Shift-Reload rather than just reload in your browser, then
the squid would also not return a cached copy.
