+ WebDAV module for lighttpd
+
+.. meta::
+ :keywords: lighttpd, webdav
+
+.. contents:: Table of Contents
+
+Description
+===========
+
+The WebDAV module is a very minimalistic implementation of RFC 2518.
+Minimalistic means that not all operations are implementated yet.
+
+So far we have
+
+ * PROPFIND
+ * OPTIONS
+ * MKCOL
+ * DELETE
+ * PUT
+
+and the usual GET, POST, HEAD from HTTP/1.1.
+
+So far mounting a webdav resource into Windows XP works and the basic litmus
+tests are passed.
+
+Options
+=======
+
+webdav.activate
+ If you load the webdav module the WebDAV functionality has to be
+ enabled for the directories you want to the provide to the user.
+
+ Default: disable
+
+webdav.is-readonly
+ Only allow reading methods (GET, PROPFIND, OPTIONS) on WebDAV resources.
+
+ Default: writable
+
+Examples
+========
+
+To enable WebDAV for the /dav directory you take a conditional and wrap around
+your webdav options. You have to use the regex like below as you want to match
+the directory /dav and everything below it, but not /davos. ::
+
+ $HTTP["url"] =~ "^/dav($|/)" {
+ webdav.activate = "enable"
+ webdav.is-readonly = "enable"
+ }
