     2013         as for a gateway to some other protocol or a document that accepts annotations. In contrast, the target resource in a PUT
     2014         request is intended to take the enclosed representation as a new or replacement value. Hence, the intent of PUT is idempotent
     2015         and visible to intermediaries, even though the exact effect is only known by the origin server.

     2019         the target resource and instead wishes to have it applied to a different resource, such as when the resource has been moved
     2020         to a different URI, then the origin server <em class="bcp14">MUST</em> send a 301 (Moved Permanently) response; the user agent <em class="bcp14">MAY</em> then make its own decision regarding whether or not to redirect the request.

     2024         state as the current version resource). A successful PUT request on "the current version" URI might therefore create a new
     2025         version resource in addition to changing the state of the target resource, and might also cause links to be added between

    718 <t>
    719    Request and Response messages &MAY; transfer a representation if not otherwise
    720    restricted by the request method or response status code. A representation
    721    consists of metadata (representation header fields) and data (representation
    722    body).  When a complete or partial representation is enclosed in an HTTP message,
    723    it is referred to as the payload of the message. HTTP representations
    724    are defined in &payload;.
    725 </t>
    726 <t>
    727    A representation body is only present in a message when a message body is
    728    present, as described in &message-body;. The representation body is obtained
    729    from the message body by decoding any Transfer-Encoding that might
    730    have been applied to ensure safe and proper transfer of the message.

    735    It is sometimes necessary to determine an identifier for the resource
    736    associated with a representation.
    737 </t>
    738 <t>
    739    An HTTP request representation, when present, is always associated with an
    740    anonymous (i.e., unidentified) resource.
    741 </t>
    742 <t>
    743    In the common case, an HTTP response is a representation of the target
    744    resource (see &effective-request-uri;). However, this is not always the
    745    case. To determine the URI of the resource a response is associated with,
    746    the following rules are used (with the first applicable one being selected):
    747 </t>
    748 <t><list style="numbers">
    749    <t>If the response status code is 200 or 203 and the request method was GET,
    750    the response payload is a representation of the target resource.</t>
    751    <t>If the response status code is 204, 206, or 304 and the request method was GET
    752    or HEAD, the response payload is a partial representation of the target
    753    resource.</t>
    754    <t>If the response has a Content-Location header field, and that URI is the same
    755    as the effective request URI, the response payload is a representation of the
    756    target resource.</t>
    757    <t>If the response has a Content-Location header field, and that URI is not the
    758    same as the effective request URI, then the response asserts that its
    759    payload is a representation of the resource identified by the
    760    Content-Location URI. However, such an assertion cannot be trusted unless
    761    it can be verified by other means (not defined by HTTP).</t>
    762    <t>Otherwise, the response is a representation of an anonymous (i.e.,
    763    unidentified) resource.</t>

    786 <t>
    787    Implementors need to be aware that the software represents the user in
    788    their interactions over the Internet, and need to allow
    789    the user to be aware of any actions they take which might have an
    790    unexpected significance to themselves or others.
    791 </t>
    792 <t>
    793    In particular, the convention has been established that the GET, HEAD,
    794    OPTIONS, and TRACE request methods &SHOULD-NOT; have the significance
    795    of taking an action other than retrieval. These request methods ought
    796    to be considered "<x:dfn anchor="safe">safe</x:dfn>".
    797    This allows user agents to represent other methods, such as POST, PUT
    798    and DELETE, in a special way, so that the user is made aware of the
    799    fact that a possibly unsafe action is being requested.
    800 </t>
    801 <t>
    802    Naturally, it is not possible to ensure that the server does not
    803    generate side-effects as a result of performing a GET request; in
    804    fact, some dynamic resources consider that a feature. The important
    805    distinction here is that the user did not request the side-effects,
    806    so therefore cannot be held accountable for them.

    813    Request methods can also have the property of "idempotence" in that,
    814    aside from error or expiration issues, the intended effect of multiple
    815    identical requests is the same as for a single request.
    816    PUT, DELETE, and all safe request methods are idempotent.
    817    It is important to note that idempotence refers only to changes
    818    requested by the client: a server is free to change its state due
    819    to multiple requests for the purpose of tracking those requests,
    820    versioning of results, etc.

    832    The OPTIONS method requests information about the
    833    communication options available on the request/response chain
    834    identified by the effective request URI. This method allows a client to
    835    determine the options and/or requirements associated with a resource,
    836    or the capabilities of a server, without implying a resource action
    837    or initiating a resource retrieval.

    846    specification does not define any use for such a body, future
    847    extensions to HTTP might use the OPTIONS body to make more detailed
    848    queries on the server.
    849 </t>
    850 <t>
    851    If the request-target (&request-target;) is an asterisk ("*"),
    852    the OPTIONS request is
    853    intended to apply to the server in general rather than to a specific
    854    resource. Since a server's communication options typically depend on
    855    the resource, the "*" request is only useful as a "ping" or "no-op"
    856    type of method; it does nothing beyond allowing the client to test
    857    the capabilities of the server. For example, this can be used to test
    858    a proxy for HTTP/1.1 conformance (or lack thereof).
    859 </t>
    860 <t>
    861    If the request-target is not an asterisk, the OPTIONS request applies
    862    only to the options that are available when communicating with that
    863    resource.
    864 </t>
    865 <t>
    866    A 200 response &SHOULD; include any header fields that indicate
    867    optional features implemented by the server and applicable to that
    868    resource (e.g., Allow), possibly including extensions not defined by
    869    this specification. The response body, if any, &SHOULD; also include
    870    information about the communication options. The format for such a
    871    body is not defined by this specification, but might be defined by
    872    future extensions to HTTP. Content negotiation &MAY; be used to select
    873    the appropriate response format. If no response body is included, the
    874    response &MUST; include a Content-Length field with a field-value of
    875    "0".
    876 </t>
    877 <t>
    878    The Max-Forwards header field &MAY; be used to target a
    879    specific proxy in the request chain (see <xref target="header.max-forwards"/>).
    880    If no Max-Forwards field is present in the request, then the forwarded
    881    request &MUST-NOT; include a Max-Forwards field.

    905    requests that the representation be transferred only under the
    906    circumstances described by the conditional header field(s). The
    907    conditional GET request is intended to reduce unnecessary network

    915    The partial GET request is intended to reduce unnecessary
    916    network usage by allowing partially-retrieved representations to be

    965    The POST method requests that the origin server accept the
    966    representation enclosed in the request as data to be processed by the
    967    target resource. POST is designed to allow a uniform method to cover the
    968    following functions:
    969   <list style="symbols">
    970     <t>
    971       Annotation of existing resources;

    982         Extending a database through an append operation.
    983     </t>
    984   </list>
    985 </t>
    986 <t>
    987    The actual function performed by the POST method is determined by the
    988    server and is usually dependent on the effective request URI.
    989 </t>
    990 <t>
    991    The action performed by the POST method might not result in a
    992    resource that can be identified by a URI. In this case, either 200
    993    (OK) or 204 (No Content) is the appropriate response status code,
    994    depending on whether or not the response includes a representation that
    995    describes the result.
    996 </t>
    997 <t>
    998    If a resource has been created on the origin server, the response
    999    &SHOULD; be 201 (Created) and contain a representation which describes the
    1000    status of the request and refers to the new resource, and a Location
    1001    header field (see <xref target="header.location"/>).
    1002 </t>
    1003 <t>
    1004    Responses to POST requests are only cacheable when they
    1005    include explicit freshness information (see &p6-explicit;). A
    1006    cached POST response with a Content-Location header field
    1007    (see &header-content-location;) whose value is the effective
    1008    Request URI &MAY; be used to satisfy subsequent GET and HEAD requests.
    1009 </t>
    1010 <t>
    1011    Note that POST caching is not widely implemented.
    1012    However, the 303 (See Other) response can be used to direct the
    1013    user agent to retrieve a cacheable representation of the resource.

    1020 <t>
    1021    The PUT method requests that the state of the target resource
    1022    be created or replaced with the state defined by the representation
    1023    enclosed in the request message payload.  A successful PUT of a given
    1024    representation would suggest that a subsequent GET on that same target
    1025    resource will result in an equivalent representation being returned in
    1026    a 200 (OK) response.  However, there is no guarantee that such a state
    1027    change will be observable, since the target resource might be acted
    1028    upon by other user agents in parallel, or might be subject to dynamic
    1029    processing by the origin server, before any subsequent GET is received.
    1030    A successful response only implies that the user agent's intent was
    1031    achieved at the time of its processing by the origin server.
    1032 </t>
    1033 <t>   
    1034    If the target resource does not have a current representation and
    1035    the PUT successfully creates one, then the origin server &MUST; inform
    1036    the user agent by sending a 201 (Created) response.  If the target
    1037    resource does have a current representation and that representation is
    1038    successfully modified in accordance with the state of the enclosed
    1039    representation, then either a 200 (OK) or 204 (No Content) response
    1040    &SHOULD; be sent to indicate successful completion of the request.
    1041 </t>
    1042 <t>
    1043    Unrecognized header fields &SHOULD; be ignored (i.e., not saved
    1044    as part of the resource state).
    1045 </t>
    1046 <t>
    1047    An origin server &SHOULD; verify that the PUT representation is
    1048    consistent with any constraints which the server has for the target
    1049    resource that cannot or will not be changed by the PUT.  This is
    1050    particularly important when the origin server uses internal
    1051    configuration information related to the URI in order to set the
    1052    values for representation metadata on GET responses.  When a PUT
    1053    representation is inconsistent with the target resource, the origin
    1054    server &SHOULD; either make them consistent, by transforming the
    1055    representation or changing the resource configuration, or respond
    1056    with an appropriate error message containing sufficient information
    1057    to explain why the representation is unsuitable.  The 409 (Conflict)
    1058    or 415 (Unsupported Media Type) status codes are suggested, with the
    1059    latter being specific to constraints on Content-Type values.
    1060 </t>
    1061 <t>
    1062    For example, if the target resource is configured to always have a
    1063    Content-Type of "text/html" and the representation being PUT has a
    1064    Content-Type of "image/jpeg", then the origin server &SHOULD; do one of:
    1065    (a) reconfigure the target resource to reflect the new media type;
    1066    (b) transform the PUT representation to a format consistent with that
    1067    of the resource before saving it as the new resource state; or,
    1068    (c) reject the request with a 415 response indicating that the target
    1069    resource is limited to "text/html", perhaps including a link to a
    1070    different resource that would be a suitable target for the new
    1071    representation.
    1072 </t>
    1073 <t>
    1074    HTTP does not define exactly how a PUT method affects the state
    1075    of an origin server beyond what can be expressed by the intent of
    1076    the user agent request and the semantics of the origin server response.
    1077    It does not define what a resource might be, in any sense of that
    1078    word, beyond the interface provided via HTTP.  It does not define
    1079    how resource state is "stored", nor how such storage might change
    1080    as a result of a change in resource state, nor how the origin server
    1081    translates resource state into representations.  Generally speaking,
    1082    all implementation details behind the resource interface are
    1083    intentionally hidden by the server.
    1084 </t>
    1085 <t>
    1086    The fundamental difference between the POST and PUT methods is
    1087    highlighted by the different intent for the target resource.
    1088    The target resource in a POST request is intended to handle the
    1089    enclosed representation as a data-accepting process, such as for
    1090    a gateway to some other protocol or a document that accepts annotations.
    1091    In contrast, the target resource in a PUT request is intended to
    1092    take the enclosed representation as a new or replacement value.
    1093    Hence, the intent of PUT is idempotent and visible to intermediaries,
    1094    even though the exact effect is only known by the origin server.
    1095 </t>
    1096 <t>
    1097    Proper interpretation of a PUT request presumes that the user agent
    1098    knows what target resource is desired.  A service that is intended
    1099    to select a proper URI on behalf of the client, after receiving
    1100    a state-changing request, &SHOULD; be implemented using the POST
    1101    method rather than PUT.  If the origin server will not make the
    1102    requested PUT state change to the target resource and instead
    1103    wishes to have it applied to a different resource, such as when the
    1104    resource has been moved to a different URI, then the origin server
    1105    &MUST; send a 301 (Moved Permanently) response; the user agent &MAY;
    1106    then make its own decision regarding whether or not to redirect the
    1107    request.
    1108 </t>
    1109 <t>
    1110    A PUT request applied to the target resource &MAY; have side-effects
