Methods Table
When an Agent asks a Web server for a particular
page, there are a few 'methods' that can be used to access that page. If
the page has not been previously accessed by the Agent,
a 'get' method is issued to request the entire contents of the page. A 'conditional
get' asks 'has this page changed since the last time it was accessed?' If
the answer is 'no', the page does not need to be sent again, since the Agent
already has a copy of that page in its cache.
The Methods Table consists of the following columns:
