The text in question: > If the validator given in the If-Range header field matches the current validator for the selected representation of the target resource, then the server should send the specified sub-range of the representation using a 206 (Partial Content) response. If the validator does not match, then the server should send the entire representation using a 200 (OK) response. It says that if the validator does not match, the entire representation should be sent; what's the issue? Regards, -- Mark Nottingham http://www.mnot.net/
