Greetings everybody!
My name is Valery. I'm currently working on adding support for "OPTION"
http request method for XMLHttpRequest class inside Qt framework.
According to RFC (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#page-52) request
uri can contian asterisk ("*"). Please see quotation from RFC below.
"If the Request-URI is an asterisk ("*"), the OPTIONS request is
intended to apply to the server in general rather than to a specific
resource."
Normally, to send http request the code should be like the following.
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("OPTIONS", url);
req.send(null);
I had a look at http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/ and
http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/ documents. Unfortunately, I can't
find any mention about sending "OPTIONS *" request by using
XMLHttpRequest class.
Could you please tell if it is possible to send "OPTIONS *" http request
by using XMLHttpRequest class? Could you please tell which syntax should
be used to send "OPTIONS *" http request?
Thank you for your support!

Out of curiosity - do you have a use case where you need to be able to
send "OPTIONS *"?
Best regards, Julian
