REST URL Conventions

GET /locations Show all locations.
GET /locations/new Present form for creating new location.
POST /locations Create new location.
GET /locations/1 Show location #1
GET /locations/1/edit Present form for updating location #1.
PUT /locations/1 Update location #1
DELETE /locations/1 Delete location #1

Use URL parameters _method=PUT or _method=DELETE to generate HTTP verbs not available in browsers.

Use Spring filter HiddenHttpMethodFilter on the server side to support _method parameter.
