Techniques for clients and servers to use the web authoring extensions, and in particular, extended error handling to allow servers to provider richer web authoring error information to clients. One technique includes sending an authoring request to a server, receiving a response message with extended error information by a client, and sending the extended error information to an application program. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Client extended error handling

Remote differential compression is integrated within applications. Objects are updated between two or more computing devices using remote differential compression (RDC) techniques such that required data transfers are minimized. An algorithm provides enhanced efficiencies for allowing the receiver to locate a set of objects that are similar to the object that needs to be transferred from the sender. Once this set of similar objects has been found, the receiver may reuse any chunks from these objects during the RDC algorithm.

Applications for remote differential compression

Conventions for extending compounded web authoring methods to a web authoring protocol such as WebDAV. More particularly, a request can be provided with special header information to signify a method compounded with a method indicated by a verb in the request. Techniques for clients and servers to use the web authoring extensions. Extended error handling to allow servers to provider richer web authoring error information to clients.
