Perhaps put a tcp monitor kind of thing in between application and web
server. See what exactly are the header values being sent and compare
with ones sent from firefox directly.

Thanks

Subject: Getting the outgoing request header

Using libcurl with php, and am on a particular page getting odd results
when using the following code:

<?php
function url_get($domain, $uri, $referer)
{
    $header = array();
    $header[] = 'GET '.$uri.' HTTP/1.1';
    $header[] = 'Host: '.$domain;
    $header[] = 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US;
rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5';
    $header[] = 'Accept:
text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plai
n;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5

';
    $header[] = 'Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5';
    $header[] = 'Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate';
    $header[] = 'Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7';

    $header[] = 'Keep-Alive: 300';
    $header[] = 'Connection: keep-alive';

      
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $domain.$uri);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
     curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_ENCODING, ""); #"gzip,deflate,compress"
     curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $header);
 

      $result['exec'] = curl_exec ($ch);
    $result['info'] = curl_getinfo($ch);

# echo curlinfo_content_type($ch);
# foreach ($result['info'] as $key=>$value ) { echo "$key $value <br
/>"; }
    
    //use this line to get more info
    //return $result;
    return $result['exec'];

    curl_close ($ch);
}

echo url_get('www.site.com', '/', '-');

?>
--------

When commenting out the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER line the result is ok, but I
am not getting the expected return from the script with my custom
headers. In Firefox which I try to mimic, the result however is ok, so I

assume some headers are not sent as expected. How can I trouble shoot
what my requested headers really where?
