Question

as per wikipedia terms REST is

REST can be considered the
architectural style for the World Wide
Web. The architectural style was
developed in parallel to the HTTP/1.1
protocol, based on the existing design
of HTTP/1.0

REST practices started long time ago along with HTTP evolution. If i understand the defenetions correctly , we can take advantage of existing techologies and can built REST services on top of it.

My requirement is to built RESTFul services on top of .Net 2.0 (i know this can be easily acheivable in WCF, but currently i dont have that luxury).

• is this possible??

• if possible please point me some
  working examples..

• is there any blogs or writings in internet
  covers the implementation of this
  approach..?

EDIT:

i forgot to mention this one.

• is it possible to consume the REST services from javascript.??

Thanks in Advance

Answer 1

There is a book restful .net

Try this for a client: http://developer.yahoo.com/dotnet/howto-rest_cs.html for example

edit: to reflect comment:

I found this article on how to do a restful serivce with http handlers.

And how to consume via javascript.
