<p>The Location response header indicates the URL to redirect a page to. It
only provides a meaning when served with a 3xx status response.</p>
<p>The HTTP method used to make the new request to fetch the page pointed
to by Location depends of the original method and of the kind of
redirection:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>If 303 (See Also) responses always lead to the use of a GET method,
307 (Temporary Redirect) and 308 (Permanent Redirect) don't change the
method used in the original request;</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>301 (Permanent Redirect) and 302 (Found) doesn't change the method
most of the time, though older user-agents may (so you basically don't
know).</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>All responses with one of these status codes send a Location header.</p>
<p>Beside redirect response, messages with 201 (Created) status also
include the Location header. It indicates the URL to the newly created
resource.</p>
<p>Location and Content-Location are different: Location indicates the
target of a redirection (or the URL of a newly created resource), while
Content-Location indicates the direct URL to use to access the resource
when content negotiation happened, without the need of further content
negotiation. Location is a header associated with the response, while
Content-Location is associated with the entity returned.</p>
