---------------------------------------- HTTP Header Viewer February 21st, 2024 ---------------------------------------- I noticed last night that Peter Lowe removed the browser header viewer from his website[1]... After a cursory Google search for another one, I determined that I *hate* everyone else's, typically because of excessive amounts of advertisements on the pages. As a result I quickly hacked a page up on my web server duplicating the basic functionality of his. It's available at:
http://gopher.zcrayfish.soy/browser_headers.sh
I tested it on NCSA Mosaic and it works, what more could anyone ask for?

But there's: wget --spider -S http://www.example.com/ Posted Thu Feb 22 21:13:30 UTC 2024 by 1.152.111.48 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'm not sure what you're going on about because your wget example is 50% GNU options that are not present in other folks' wget implementations... But I am assuming that it prints either headers sent by the server and/or headers sent by GNU wget... In either case my post was about headers sent by the browser. Posted Thu Feb 23 01:29:29 UTC 2024 by zcrayfish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I see, you're using type 'w' instead of 'h', so UMN Gopher doesn't show the Web selectors. Wasn't GNU Wget the original Wget?

I tested the change on lynx, NCSA Mosaic, Lagrange, and w3m, which are the clients I have on- hand... Additionally tested on the floodgap proxy.
