[Any]
<Limit> is a sectioning directive that applies to
the specified access methods (GET, POST, etc.). This directive restricts
the boundaries of the access methods specified; if you wish to apply
restrictions globally, omit the Limit directive
completely. The start tag has the following syntax:
<Limit method1 method2 ...>where a method is one of the following:
- GET
Allows clients to retrieve documents and execute scripts with the GET request method.
- POST
Allows clients to use scripts and resources using the POST request method (mostly CGI programs).
- PUT
Allows clients access to documents and resources using the PUT request method.
- DELETE
Allows clients access to documents and resources using the DELETE request method.
- CONNECT
Allows clients access to documents and resources using the CONNECT request method.
- OPTIONS
Allows clients access to documents and resources using the OPTIONS request method.
The order, deny, allow, and
require directives are the usual inhabitants of
the Limit sectioning directive.
