I think Mozilla 0.9.7 DOES send it. Look at my access log for loading and reloading the root URL: 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:55:56 -0800] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 1456 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:55:56 -0800] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 295 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:55:56 -0800] "GET /apache_pb.gif HTTP/1.1" 200 2326 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:55:59 -0800] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:55:59 -0800] "GET /apache_pb.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:56:00 -0800] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:56:00 -0800] "GET /apache_pb.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:56:00 -0800] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:56:00 -0800] "GET /apache_pb.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:56:01 -0800] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 304 - 127.0.0.1 - - [15/Mar/2002:16:56:01 -0800] "GET /apache_pb.gif HTTP/1.1" 304 - The last field is the # of bytes sent. The first fetch sends a bunch of data. The later ones send nothing, but a 304 status which is the proper response to an If-Modified-Since (whose cache is still valid). Things for you to consider: - Version of Mozilla? - Did you hit reload? Only a second query would send the If-Modified-Since. - There are 2 other If- headers, but I didn't read up on them. - Settings of the cache in your browser. - Do browsers not send this if they detect something about the server? (like HTTP version?) -Chuck _______________________________________________ Webware-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-devel
