For a book try:
   WebDAV: Next-Generation Collaborative Web Authoring
by Lisa Dusseault http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0130652083/qid=1117806450/sr=2-1/ref=pd_bbs_b_2_1/103-9783913-6349457


For debugging try Ethereal - either the Slide or the Subversion (I can't remember which) wiki/docs have a quick but very helpful intro. to the settings needed to see the HTTP/WebDAV conversation.

Hi there,

It has probably been asked a million times, so my apologies since I was unable to web the answer. I'm seeking a deeper understanding of the webDAV protocol and what happens "on the wire" I know there are the methods GET, POST, PROPFIND, MOVE, COPY etc.I'm not so clear how the conversations look like e.g. when the client sends a PROPFIND /test/ HTTP 1.1 header, what else would I need. What would the server answer, (To my understanding a 207 Multi-Status response header and an XML body) which of the requests/response pairs are common, which of them carry a body, how does that body look like? Slide is handling all this, I'd just like to understand it. Could you point me to URLs or books with the information I seek?

Thx and have a great day!
:-) stw
