Subject: SDK Returning "other" HTTP response codes 
Date: Thu, 26 Aug 1999 13:51:36 +0200 

Hi, I'm planning the design of a server plugin solution that will present 
it's user interface with RealText and respond to HTTP client commands 
(through a query string etc.)
Since there are no pages served by this solution, only modifications to an 
existing stream, how do I return the standard successful HTTP response: 204 
No Content.
I need to respond this way because the RealPlayer will be embedded in a web 
page, sending commands to the RealServer through <a> links in RealText 
streams. Half the commands will come from RealText and the other will come 
from the web page. The web page must not reload so I must respond with the 
204 result.
My intuition tells me that I need to modify the incoming IRMARequest in my 
IRMAFileSystem when I successfully return an empty file, similar to 
modifying the mime type of the returned file. Which header(s) or return 
codes should I provide and where?
There is *no* documentation on this.
Thanks, 
Sean
