>I'm confused. I wasn't talking about RFC 1123, but about the token >rfc1123-date (p.13), which defines a specific date format. The token >HTTP-date allows one of three different date formats, one of which is >rfc1123-date. I assumed you wanted to specify just one of those formats. Ah, sorry, I misunderstood. The answer is still no, since all three dates are still valid in HTTP/1.0 messages. The requirement that one not be generated is separate from the field syntax. I also forgot to include that all three formats are only required to be understood by those applications which parse the contents of the date field. .......Roy
