[jira] Commented: (SLING-53) Add request filter for method overwrite

["Bertrand Delacretaz (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-53?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12552732 ] 

Bertrand Delacretaz commented on SLING-53:
------------------------------------------

On sling-dev, Lars suggests using *two* filters:

First ServletFilter changes Request-Parameters with a certain naming pattern into request headers. This overcomes the disability of web
browsers to set headers programatically.

Second ServletFilter uses a header like X-HTTP-Method to override the HTTP method.

Note that we're already using ujax: as a prefix for request parameters interpreted by µjax, the pattern for the first filter should be similar.

> To allow for method overwrite I suggest to add a request processing Filter along the lines of the Abdera MethodOverWriteFilter [1] as stipulated by Roy in [2].
