Topic: HEAD-requests
N/A posted August 30, 2001 5:13 PM

Hi!

I am sending a few HEAD-requests to a proxy server and I ran into a few problems:

a) Can I somehow disable those "Pragma: no-cache" header fields in a HEAD-Request? I don't see where they come from but they are there ...

b) Can Header Fields be edited at all for a HEAD-Request? What if I need more than username/password for them?

Thanks!

Hi Ts,
Unfortunately, it's not possible to access the Request Headers with the Web Control. The protocol actually specifies that the Pragma Header must be added to a request through a proxy, which is why it is added automatically by the control.

If you want more flexibility than the Web Control provides, I recommend looking at the WebAsp control of the Web Enterprise Tool, which (among other benefits) does allow you access to the Request Headers.
