Subbu: Not sure of your question, so I'll take a shot: *** You might be asking if the conditional header should be present in the body at all. Consider cases where the response contains a list of possible resources to PUT/DELETE, each possibility rendered as a FORM with the response representation: <html> ... <h1>Unresolved Orders</h1> <form action="..." method="delete" if-match="q1w2e3"><label>Order #123</label><input type="submit" value="delete" /></form> <form action="..." method="delete" if-match="w2e3r4"><label>Order #456</label><input type="submit" value="delete" /></form> <form action="..." method="delete" if-match="e3r4t5"><label>Order #789</label><input type="submit" value="delete" /></form> ... </html> In the above example, the Etag of the response representation would be insufficient as that Etag belongs to the entire response, not any of the resources represented by each form in the body. mca http://amundsen.com/blog/ http://twitter.com@mamund http://mamund.com/foaf.rdf#me #RESTFest 2010 http://rest-fest.googlecode.com On Fri, Apr 1, 2011 at 21:07, Subbu Allamaraju <subbu@subbu.org> wrote: > Do you need the conditional headers as form parameters?
