[Webware-discuss] How can I access Request headers (implementing 304 responses)?

From: Costas Malamas <costasm@ho...> - 2004-01-20 03:45

Hey all,

I am trying to implement 304/Not-Modified responses for WK, but I don't seem 
to be able to find a way to access the Request HTTP headers to get the 
If-not-Modified-Since and the Etag header (whose long name escapes me now).  
Is there an API for that? has anybody done 304s from WK before?

On an unrelaed note, FYI, I implemented Geoffrey's Cache on my WK 
installation just recently, and I have to say that memigo.com survived quite 
a large Slashdotting last week with hardly a hickup (to the point that my 
SSH connection to the server was slow but WK was pumping HTML as fast as 
ever).  Props to everybody, and Geoffrey in particular.

the header is in the HTTPResponse obj.
ie:
    
self.response().setHeader('Content-Disposition','attachment;filename=Report.xls')
