What are the possible side effects of selecting HTTP/1.0 or HTTP/1.1 as the version for the HTTP Component?

Here's my prob - I have an application that uses the HTTP component (with SSL) to comunicate with a servlet on our server (Apache WebServer). It seems that if a request is sent (using a POST) over HTTP/1.1 everything works OK, but if HTTP/1.0 is used, my application doesn't receive a response...I beleive some Proxy servers FORCE a HTTP/1.0 is this true and would it cause problems??

Regards,

Matthew Clark.

I don't see why this would be a problem? I think you need to figure out why you don't receive a response first.

OK.. the Send "HTTP/1.1 requests via proxy" setting in IE was not checked.. I hadn't realised this would effect the component... it's working perfectly now.

Aha. That's one I had not heard of yet. That's because we use WININET.DLL, which in turn uses the setting from the registry.

Hmm.. I could modify those registry settings via my application then.. better than telling our clients to go to the IE Internet properties...

Is there a list of the registry entries anywhere? There are only really a few we'd be interested in modifying... Do you know if they are consistent across Win95/98/NT/2000?

Here's where they are for 2000:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

as far as I know they are same on all platforms.
