It would not be non-standard. The responds would probably not be used by anyone for anything. But if you read about the Location and Content-Location header, I think the latter should not be used to convay the preferred location of a resource. That is the job of the Location header. Even if it is not used to rediciret, but marly inform about the preferred location. -- Daniel Aleksandersen --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
