No, actually the option to use a number of verbs is core to http, not sure if it's arbitrarily many or just GET, HEAD, POST, PUT, DELETE, TRACE, OPTIONS, and a few selected others. As I understand it WebDAV may add VERSION and certainly specifies the semantics for using it's operations.
Actually the PUT verb is super useful for webservice implementations because you can use it to send arbitrary data into your service. Its handy on REST implementations and perhaps even more so if you start breaking the REST rules (bad developer no twinkie) -Andy Fundinger On Dec 19, 2007 4:32 PM, Colin Alston <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On 19/12/2007 23:07 Jean-Paul Calderone wrote: > > > > I'm not sure what putrequest is.
