Hi Jean-Philippe, In addition to the current workaround described by Karel, we are planning to support the "X-HTTP-Method-Override" header in Restlet 1.2:
"Support method tunneling via header" http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=297 Best regards, Jerome Louvel -- Restlet ~ Founder and Lead developer ~ http://www.restlet.org Noelios Technologies ~ Co-founder ~ http://www.noelios.com -----Message d'origine----- De : Karel Vervaeke [mailto:[email protected]] Envoye : vendredi 30 janvier 2009 09:02 A : [email protected] Objet : Re: Overriding HTTP headers Just scanning your mail diagonally I think you need to add the method parameter to your query string (in combination with POST requests): http://host/path?method=PUT http://host/path?method=DELETE (You should have the tunnel service enabled) HTH, Karel On Fri, Jan 30, 2009 at 8:00 AM, Jean-Philippe Steinmetz <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello again, > > One of my REST clients will be a Flash application.
