Abstract
Access source control of resources within standard request-response protocols such as HTTP is disclosed. In one embodiment, the server receives a request, and determines whether a TRANSLATE header of the request specifies TRUE or FALSE. If the former, the server generates and returns the response to the resource. If the latter, the server determines whether an access source bit controlling access to the source of the resource is turned on. If it is, then the source can be accessed by the client; that is, in one embodiment, the source is returned. Otherwise, in one embodiment, an error message is returned.
