hi.... i'm going slightly mad! i'm trying to connect to a generic web site but my procedure seems not to work and i can't understand why. i'm using the following request:
GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHOST: www.dei.it\r\nConnection: close\r\nAccept: */*\r\n\r\n
is it right?!?!?!
previously i connect to the socket to www.dei.it on port 80. however, after the request i can't receive anything from the server... have you got any idea what's the problem?
really thanks

do i need to send both the header and the message together (with the \r\n to
say
that the message is finished)?
Yes you do. Assuming you're using a GET request, what works for me is something like this:
GET <docname> HTTP/1.1 Host: <hostname>
with a double newline ("\n\n") after the "Host" line.
