About
The HTTP If-Modified-Since
request header makes a request
conditional; the server sends back the requested resource, with a 200
status, only if it has been modified after the date in the
If-Modified-Since
header; if the resource has not been modified
since, the response is 304 without any body, and the Last-Modified
response header of the previous request contains the date of the last
modification1.
