What's the maximum length of an HTTP GET request? Is there a response error defined that the server can/should return if it receives a GET request exceeds this length?
Hi,
I have a web-service endpoint and a http connector on port X.
At some point this endpoint needs to switch to https, but on the same port!
(I know this is not the normal way of doing things, but this is what my clients expect from an old server they are using...)
Is there a way to do it in tomcat?
Hi,
I'm looking for an HTTP Proxy/GUI combination that should be installed locally on my Windows PC. The UI should display something similar to Firebugs "Network" tab, showing request/response headers and content as plaintext.
It would be cool if I could attach requests to a sort of node for later comparison, similar to what you can do when using…
This might be a beginner question but I did some googling and couldn't find an answer so bear with me.
I was wondering if there was a resource, tutorial, wiki, etc that explained how to create an http proxy. It would be good to see it in ruby but any language will do if that's not possible.
Thanks a lot
Hello,
I am trying to grab a value from a url:
http://localhost:8080/bin/task_status?id=2&cmd=percent_done
I am unsure how to actually do this within a javascript (ajax) command that once the page has been loaded will be called every .5 seconds. It is using the AJAX built in progress bar to display.
I plan to use java.util.zip to compress http post data when sending it from a java client to the server(java servlet in this case).
is this the best approach for reducing data load?
should I use gzip as the compression alg?
When using HTTP/1.1 Pipelining what does the standard say about issuing multiple requests without waiting for each request to complete? What do servers do in practice?
I ask because I once tried writing a client which would issue a batch of GET requests for multiple files and remember getting errors. I wasn't sure if it was due to me incorrectly…

Hi, I'd like to extract the info string from an internet radio streamed over HTTP. By info string I mean the short note about the currently played song, band name etc.
Preferably I'd like to do it in python. So far I've tried opening a socket but from there I got a bunch of binary data that I could not parse...
thanks for any hints
Hi all,
I have some software which runs as a black box, I have no access to it. This software makes HTTP requests. What I want to do is intercept these requests, forward them on, catch the response, do something with it, before passing the response back to the software.
Can this be done? What's the best method?
Thanks
Is there an easy forwarding/transparent php proxy script that I can host on my web server? These are my conditions:
I'm using free web hosting, so I have pretty much no control over my machine. Otherwise I could use Perl's HTTP::Proxy module. This means no root password. It does run php though.
I already have a server running on port 80. What…
If you want to run a 64 bit virtual machine on a 32 bit host you have two options 1. VMWare Server (or a Workstation version that supports 64bit guests) 2. Sun Virtual box Though 64 bit guests on 32 bit hosts is possible, it requires that you are running x64 (not ia64) hardware. All the new Intel processors are 64 bit compatible (if you…

The specific reason for this is I am…
