HTTP / redirect / method review

Review HTTP redirects without losing the request method

A redirect is more than a final URL: review what happens to the method and body. This page compares synthetic cases and never sends a request.

Status boundaries

301/302 can be rewritten from POST to GET depending on the client and situation. 307/308 intend to preserve the method, but the destination contract and replay safety still require confirmation.

Why this page stays offline

This page does not fetch a real URL, submit a form, handle credentials or cookies, or persist data.

Confirm real behavior against the browser, server and proxy contract; do not treat a synthetic case as production evidence.
