It's not part of any WSGI standard, but in WebOb if there is a range request, a 200 response (i.e., no range has been applied) and app_iter has an app_iter_range method, it will use that to send a range response. This response rewriting isn't on by default in WebOb, but I've usually turned it on in my own code. An example is at the bottom of this tutorial: http://pythonpaste.org/webob/file-example.html -- Ian Bicking : [EMAIL PROTECTED] : http://blog.ianbicking.org _______________________________________________ Web-SIG mailing list Web-SIG@python.org Web SIG: http://www.python.org/sigs/web-sig Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/web-sig/archive%40mail-archive.com
