Hi Henning, Orkut uses a zero-based approach but I don't think the spec defines which method to use.
FilterType.ALL is defined as the default filter in the spec, so you can think of it as no filtering of results. However, requests with ALL are still subject to FIRST and MAX limitations, even if these are implicitly added by the container (and not by the developer). For example, the defaults on orkut are: FilterType = ALL FIRST = 0 MAX = 20 So even if the developer specifies no parameters, these three values are still passed in the request. Hence, there appears to be a "silent limit". Hope this helps, ~Arne On Jun 17, 7:08 am, "Henning Schmiedehausen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Two quick (and probably pretty dumb) questions: > > - General: are the FIRST and MAX fields one-based or zero-based?
