emulating LiveHTTPheaders server side

Question

Is it possible to 'translate' headers from this firefox extension into server side script?

edit:

I'm trying to SEND headers, not retrieve them. I performed some actions in browser and i want them to be automatically repeated (with few changes) by server-side script.

Answer 1

You can use PHP's header() function to send headers to the user's browser.

If you're making HTTP requests to other sites from your server, use cURL's curl_setopt function to set the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER option - you can provide an array of headers to pass along with your request.

Answer 2

Consider print_r(apache_request_headers());

PHP Manual: apache_request_headers()

Here is an example and its source code.

Answer 3

Use the cURL functions for your request and use curl_setopt:

curl_setopt(CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER,  array('Referer: http://www.example.com/'));
