Just a slight update. I got rid of the code that I produced earlier and trying
another route. I realize what I posted was pretty basic. It worked fine for
getting the html code, but figuring out that this is not the proper way of
doing it, or at least not the best way of doing it. So disregard m
To give you a better understanding, this is my method I am using in the
webService to return the raw data. It's really basic WebRequest Functionality.
Mind you it might not be formatted nicely since I am using yahoo, but im sure
it will still be readable.
private string GetPage(string strURL)
The data can be in any format. "String format" is vague. Is that ASCII,
Unicode, etc? HTTP, I believe, specifies that the header text must use
ASCII codepoints. The "content" can be anything--specified by the Content-
type header.

Not a problem John, I will definitely post what I find out. Might be later this

Ok, I understand what you're saying. So one more question and I'll get to
coding..when you say the server just send it back as raw data wrapped with an
http response header - is that raw data in string format..hmm, could of just

thanks for the wireshark idea, i just in
The Content-type header in the response tells you what type of data is
after the header. For an image it should be MIME type "image/gif".

By the way, you can watch the raw data going back and forth with free
tools like WireShark.

The browser itself just requests a specific resource (an image file, in
this case). The server just sends it back as raw data wrapped with an
HTTP response header.
You *could* do that sort of thing with a custom browser and server (i.e.
encode image data in a specific way, like uuencode; but, I k

This application is just a proof of concept and just passing time while I wait
for my project to begin. So no real purpose, at least for now but could come in
handy in the near future.
The proxy that the web browser is going through is an app that I made,
basically a tcp listener on port 8889.
The browser may be caching the image...
I would expect that a proxy would simply send back byte[]. Unless it's
some sort of smart proxy, it should only know that data is going through
it, not what type the data is.
It could detect the type of the request and send data back in a specific
way...
Peter, I have an additional question. I see that it did make several calls but
none of them were for the image, just style sheets and such.
What I was wondering, and what I noticed, is that I only return a string which
would be the raw html page. Would my webservice have to look for an image

Ok, thanks for the quick reply Peter, I'll do some more testing today and see
what gives.

No I'm not getting a seperate request, I'll try it again today and see if it
does, I just got in office. Im wondering if I have to parse the HTML and set
any link to actually go to my proxy instead of the normal address. Thing is
here at work they have their own proxy, so my local proxy has to g
Unless I've misunderstood your use of "proxy", your proxy should be
getting the request to download the image after the request to download
the HTML. It's not getting that?

I created a proxy application that sits locally, and a web service that
communicates with my local proxy. I pass in a website and it passes back the
raw data, pretty basic.
What I can't figure out how to do is get the images back as well for the page.
Take google for example, the page comes bac
