i'm constructing a web-service that is used, in this particular case, to ask for information about a patron. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that the lookup web hit is: GET /patrons/619 HTTP/1.1 If the patron is found, i return code 200: HTTP/1.1 200 OK If you omit, or give an account number that is not a number, i return 40...

I'd like to respond to an http request with both a txt file and an html page. This way the client can save the file and see a summary of that file's contents via an html page. Since the file is generated on the fly, I have to use state management on the server to generate the summary on the second request. I'd like to avoid this and wra...

And if i have some javascript files will it cache them as well for subsequent pages, or is it more complicated then that.
