I'd like to add at least a 'username' and 'password' attribute to c:http-request so that an "Authorization" header can be generated as appropriate. The minimum semantics would be that a p:http-request must respond to an authentication challenge if the authorization credentials are given. Optionally, we could add a "auth-method" attribute that would take "basic" or "digest". If that attribute is specified, an "Authorization" header would be generated on the first request to avoid a challenge response and resending of the request. -- --Alex Milowski "The excellence of grammar as a guide is proportional to the paucity of the inflexions, i.e. to the degree of analysis effected by the language considered."
