Re: [Zope-dev] Zope as a proxy - cache server

Currently, ZServer adhers closely to the HTTP RFC by allowing only requests of the form '[METHOD] [/path] HTTP/[version]'. Proxy requests are of the form '[METHOD] [Full URL] HTTP/[version]', where [Full URL] is something like http://a.host.address/path.

Oops. The current HTTP protocol (1.1) specifically states that a server MUST be able to accept a fully qualified URL (this is in an attempt to get clients across the internet to STOP sending just the path in the request). --sam
