I didn't see that one going in. Does it run through the process and send the right headers for size and all, or does it just stop after checking that the file exists? (former seems better to me)
The latter would seem better to me. Because in the case of either a content provider or XSP, processing the entire request may have side effects. And it seems to me like HTTP HEAD requests should never generate side effects.
The same things can be said of AxTraceIntermediate, and processing-instructions. I've had to put code into my provider to do its own caching of a requests results, and output the same results if the get_strref method is called more then once. It feels to me like I shouldn't have to do that.
