Http header

Hi,

i want to sent an accept in a http header, but it doesn’t work. I use this
code (and also tried many others):
h = Net::HTTP.new(“www.anyserver.de”, 80)
resp, body = h.get("/index.html", “accept” => “/” )

Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot

h = Net::HTTP.new("www.anyserver.de", 80)
  resp, body = h.get("/index.html", "accept" => "*/*" )

Well, it work for me try this

   h = Net::HTTP.new("www.anyserver.de", 80)
   h.set_debug_output($stderr)
   resp, body = h.get("/index.html", "accept" => "*/*" )

and you'll see what it send

Hi,
okay but now I can only see what ruby does. I have a sniffer running to
control if its sending the accept command. But there is nothing else shown
than GET /index.html. Don’t know any further.

Your sniffer is broken, change it :slight_smile:
