I vote for that. I also like the Dave Morris proposal. Assumption: the reason people originally wanted the full Orig-URI: header was to get the trailing "#blahblah" suffix information, for the sake of partial returns, or for digest authentication keys, or...? Response: We could just indicate that this information can occur after the "%%", and that the "%%" is just a placehold for the Request-URI. Everything before and after the Request-URI will appear before and after the "%%" in the Orig-URI: header. I know, I'm asking for too much, but it seems like the best of both worlds to me. ----- Dan DuBois, Software Animal http://www.spyglass.com/~ddubois/ I absolutely do not speak for Spyglass.
