Ramya, To my eye, this is an error in RFC 2068. Fortunately, this error has been caught, and draft-ietf-http-v11-spec-rev-01 does list Accept-Ranges in Section 6.2 as a response header. - Jim On Tuesday, December 16, 1997 1:27 AM, Ramya T V [SMTP:ramyatv@wipinfo.soft.net] wrote: > > > Hi, > I am sorry if this is not the right mailing list to ask this doubt, > but I hope someone can help me out with this. > > RFC2068 for HTTP/1.1 specifies Accept-Ranges to be a response header > field in Section 14.5.
