Rebol's modified?

 [1/6] from: mat::b::codeplay::com at: 4-Sep-2001 9:35


Hello, Anyone got some idea on why modified? on URLs appears to be so inconsistent? If I do a HTTP head request via Telnet to our Apache web server, I see the date just fine. But in Rebol;

You are probably working with an old or not default configured HTTP server that doesn't give you information about the file. Nihao Mario

That's because the server returns "none" for "Last-Modified". -- Holger Kruse [holger--rebol--com]

Telnet and HTTP are two different protocols usually handled by different server acting in different ways. A telnet is like a remote shell (or Command Prompt if you are on the dark side of computer science) while HTTP is a protocol to transfer mainly hypertexts (texts, images, sounds and movies and... REBOL scripts ;)) Zaijian Mario

CM> Telnet and HTTP are two different protocols usually CM> handled by different server acting in different ways. Heh, I'm talking about manually telnetting into the HTTP port and doing a head command. This reports the date of the page. Modified? is checking something my web server is not responding to which Holger has identified as "Last-Modified". I'll try fix my web server.
