Domino + HTTP Request Headers
04/15/2009 11:53 AM by Chris Toohey
I've put together a simple Page Design Element - based on comments/feedback - that displays all values returned via an
@GetHTTPHeader
call for each HTTP Request
Header Field listed by the W3C.
To do this, I created a simple grid (took about 5 minutes) to show the HTTP Request Header Field name and it's returned value.
Blanks should not be considered "unsupported", but rather not populated at
this time. We, as Domino Web Application Developers, can set these HTTP
Headers (either through @SetHTTPHeader
Formula calls or via
hand-generated markup). This gives us an amazing opportunity for some really
slick and functional application development should we start leveraging things
like MD5 hashes and ETags to help optimize rich Web Browser Client
experiences.
The Domino + HTTP Request Headers Example Page Design Element sits in Anonymous-accessible NotesDatabase on my Domino server - in fact the same one that I've been using to create the "Understanding the Domino CRUD API" examples and videos - so you should be able to play around with that.
See how feedback rocks?! ;-)
