1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- specifying a request for application against a resource, the resource having a source and a response;
specifying a TRANSLATE header with the request including one of a FALSE flag to indicate that the source is wanted and a TRUE flag to indicate that the response is wanted;
outputting the request according to a predetermined transport protocol.

Abstract
Access of sources of resources within standard request-response protocols such as HTTP is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method specifies a request for application against a resource, where the resource has a source and a response. Within a TRANSLATE header within the request, there is either a FALSE flag to indicate that the source is desired, or a TRUE flag to indicate that the response is desired. In one embodiment, the TRUE flag is the default for the TRANSLATE header. The request is output according to a predetermined request protocol such as HTTP, and in one embodiment, also according to a predetermined markup language such as XML.

12. A machine-readable medium having instructions stored thereon for execution by a processor to perform a method comprising:
-
receiving at a server a request for application against a resource, the resource having a source and a response, the request having a TRANSLATE header including one of a FALSE flag to indicate that the source is wanted and a TRUE flag to indicate that the response is wanted;
determining at the server whether the TRANSLATE header includes the TRUE flag;
upon determining that the TRANSLATE header includes the TRUE flag, generating the response at the server;
submitting from the server one of the response and the source according to a predetermined markup language and according to a predetermined transport protocol over a network. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)

15. A computerized system comprising:
-
a client to generate a request for application against a resource having a source and a response, to specify a TRANSLATE header with the request including one of a FALSE flag to indicate that the source is wanted and a TRUE flag to indicate that the response is wanted, and to send the request according to a predetermined markup language and according to a predetermined transport protocol; and
,a server, communicatively coupled to the client, to generate a response to the request upon determining that the TRANSLATE header includes the TRUE flag, and to send one of the source and the response according to the predetermined markup language and according to the predetermined transport protocol. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)
