The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7233, "Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Range Requests". -------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=7233&eid=4358 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Tim <elatllat@gmail.com> Section: 4 Original Text ------------- The 206 (Partial Content) status code indicates that the server is successfully fulfilling a range request for the target resource by transferring one or more parts of the selected representation that correspond to the satisfiable ranges found in the request's Range header field (Section 3.1). Corrected Text -------------- The 206 (Partial Content) status code indicates that the server is successfully fulfilling a range request for the target resource by transferring one or more parts of the selected representation that correspond to the satisfiable ranges found in the request's Range header field (Section 3.1). A response may chose to satisfy only part of a requested range. Notes ----- Firefox and Chrome already behave as if the "Corrected Text" statement is true. It may be desirable if for example a user returns to a html5 video with auto play, pauses the video and is only interested in responding to a comment on the page. In this example it would be unnecessarily costly to transfer the whole 128GB when the user only consumes a few MB. Alternative: maybe it should only be true if last-byte-pos is absent. Instructions: ------------- This erratum is currently posted as "Reported". If necessary, please use "Reply All" to discuss whether it should be verified or rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG) can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary. -------------------------------------- RFC7233 (draft-ietf-httpbis-p5-range-26) -------------------------------------- Title : Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP/1.1): Range Requests Publication Date : June 2014 Author(s) : R.
