Hi all, I discovered that 2betax netscapes send IMF like: If-Modified-Since: Friday, 09-Feb-96 06:18:01 GMT; length=39910 I'm sure that netscapes servers use the additional length information for check, and implementing that in other servers is an easy job - I did it in a server written in perl. (My server reads named/bind config files and data and my intetion is to develop an easy DNS configuration tool and to try out some HTTP/1.1 features. Currently understands Connection: Keep-Alive and next want add digest authentication when a digest capable browser will be available on one of my machines.) This netscape feature opens up a question? should we consider in the following IMF definition for 1.1: If-Modified-Since: 1*validator where validator is http-date | length | md5 | .... NOTE: I still think validators as invalidators. Andrew. (Endre Balint Nagy) <bne@bne.ind.eunet.hu>
