Subject: RE: Comments on Bindings and Profiles doc - Draft 06
Also some comments on the Browser/POST Profile section:
4.1.2.3 Line 685. This should be https
4.1.2.4. Line 701. Missing closing bracket on <HTTP-Version
4.1.2.5 Line 753. Missing <HTTP Version> at the end of the POST header
General - seems strange to the reader that the TARGET value supplied in the
HTML form received back is then not used in the POST. I think something
should be said on this matter.
