It's clear I wasn't clear about what I meant to say.... I would think that for the *http* specification, particularly for an origin server, there are the following additional requirements that are currently unstated: - absoluteURI must be an http_URL (3.2.2) - (should https_URL and shttp_URL also be mentioned?) - host must be the FQDN of the host to which the request is sent Dave Kristol
