reading HTTP headers

Hello Friends,

I was working with Gdata to access the data in my google calander.
I want to do this with a simple HTML-JS page, no server side scripting
(hitherto dont know if this is practical).

For this I need to read the HTTP headers for a GET response. Can anyone
tell me if its possible to read the HTTP headers with Javascript or by
some other method on client side.
Thanks in advance

The getResponseHead er() method of the XMLHttpRequest object (if that's
what you were using)?

Tell me if this can be done, and if I have a misconception here. I am writing an app that will be served up in an app farm, and therefore I need to move the session information to the client, not using server-side session features. The way I have typically done this in the ASP world was with cookies. Another way to handle this is with a keyed record in a database, but the cookie strategy reduces the number of times I need to hit a...

Gosh. I posted this earlier on Google Groups, but it didn't appear. Perhaps there was a problem at Google. Forgive me for posting it again. This time, I'll be more brief. Instead of using cookies, I want to play with HTTP headers in general because I heard you can use these to circumvent cookie security/cleaner type apps (which I consider silly, btw). I want to write custom headers like: TRACK_fullname: Google Mike

Hi, I need to read (& store) all the custom response headers in an HttpResponse. I am writing an HttpModule and hence do not know what headers could have been added (but need to cache them for later use). The only relevant methods that I can see are AppendHeader/AddHeader(string, string) and ClearHeaders() both of which are obviously useless to me. Is there any way of reading the custom headers?

Hi, Let me start with the question and then describe my case : Is there a way to read the raw contents of an HTTP request in PHP as a stream (i.e. not get it all at once from Apache) ? In my case I am implementing an API for my server side app. One of the actions in the API allows the posting of binary contents as application/octet-stream. The size of this binary contents can get up to several MBs.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
