Unless you want to do the "chunked" transfer-decoding by hand, this should better be HTTP/1.0. You can then also leave out the "Connection: close", because 1.0 didn't support keep-alive. So, for the record, the correct syntax is GET / HTTP/1.0 Host: www.blaufenster.ch And he just wanted to show that the server was available. > Not all web servers support HTTP/0.8 anymore. You mean 0.9. Apache and most other webservers degrade gracefully. The problem in the example above was the lowercase "get". Here's a proof that backwards compatibility always works: http://www.w3.org/DesignIssues/CompatibleProof </flaaame> :) Daniel _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list [email protected] http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
