Need to handle 404 for on-demand probing. #13

Closed von closed 13 years ago

von commented 13 years ago

From the Perspectives-Server README:

The server implements "on-demand probing", so if you query for a service-id that is not in the database, the notary will automatically kick-off a probe for that service. The notary will respond with an HTTP 404, and the client should requery to get the results. The Perspectives Firefox client will requery appropriately.

Currently the PerProxy client code doesn't handle this.

I believe this issue should be handled in that library and not in PerProxy. Closing for PerProxy.
