> You should not blindly relay a server's response directly to the client if you are not bahaving like a good HTTP proxy (not even a proxy does it blindly actually, it processes the headers).
Ok, sorry in advance, I'm sort of a novice at all of this, but why not? Also, let's just theoretically say that someone else (not me, of course), just blindly spit back the response. Is it possible to tell the client to treat the response in the context of www.otherdomain.com instead of www.mydomain.com? Thanks for your prompt reply - You should rather parse and interprete the server's response and craft a response suitable for your client out of it. In your case this means parsing HTML, which is out of the scope of HttpClient since HTML is part of the HTTP message body.
