Synopsis

<Limit> ... </Limit>

Description

[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.
