The URI is the parameter to GET. Without it, GET has nothing to function with. It controls the behavior of system, and affects the returned result in a general sense. You could of course have a server that responds to any URI with 404 not found, and then you could argue that the URI has no meaning... > How many parameters do you need to invoke toString() on a Java object > when given a handle to one? Same answer. The result depends on which reference you have. The GET results depend on which URI you provide. Gregg Wonderly ------------------------ Yahoo!
