Hi! I am merging all my site icons in sprites, but, for some reasons, sometimes I have to add a little white space between some. http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/9793/16spritetest4.png In this image, the icons on left are the ones that need space around them. I wonder what is better for server/user: to split the icons on left from...
I've got a remote server on eapps.com that I'm using as my "production" server. I have my own computer at home that I'm using as my "development" server. I'm trying to use JNDI over HTTP to do some batch processing. The following works at home, but not on the eapps machine. I'm connecting to some EJBs (stateless session), and have my jn...
PHP as an Apache module or otherwise, would start one thread per pending request so it doesn't scale well. Are Java and Python my only other options? As a complete newbie to Python, is Twisted easy to use? ...
Just wondering how I would send a file along HTTP. I'm using HTTPRequest. The data needs to be outputted in its binary form so I can send it in a multipart request. And ideas on how I do it? I'm totally lost. ...
As per title really I'm wanting to send a custom HTTP post request to a web server and I have little experience in this area. The web server uses an LDAP server for access control (not sure if that's important) for which of course I know the username and password. Could anyone flesh out some code to do this or at least get me started? E...
We are looking at adjusting our web pages so we split our calls for static data across sub-domains. In order to do this we must: Always serve the same content from the same sub-domain so it remains cached Try and serve roughly the same amount of content from each of the sub-domains Try to do this in an automatic way on a per-page basis...
Is there any way to get raw response http header? The getHeaderField() method doesn't work for me, because server spits multiple 'Set-Cookie' and some of them get lost. ...
This is somehow related to my question here. I process tons of texts (in HTML and XML mainly) fetched via HTTP. I'm looking for a library in python that can do smart encoding detection based on different strategies and convert texts to unicode using best possible character encoding guess. I found that chardet does auto-detection extrem...
I have written a css server which does minimization and basic parsing/var replacement. The server is using node.js. I am wanting to gzip my response from this server. As told in IRC, node.js does not currently have a gzip lib, so I am attempting to do it manually from the command line (as I am only gzipping when not in cache). I am pus...
Hi, I have a vb.net application running as intranet on Win Server 2003. So should I use HTTPS instead of HTTP? What is the difference or why should I if the answer is HTTPS? Is there any code in VB to redirect from HTTP to HTTPS? Thanking you all in advance for your time and consideration. ...
Is there an open source machine-readable grammar for HTTP/1.1 requests and responses? Specifically, i'm looking for a grammar that is accepted by one of the popular parser generators (e.g., ANTLR, CUP, BNFC, ...). ...
YSlow, dynaTrace, HTTPWatch, Fiddler ......... All these things are really good for measuring the performance of the website and get statistics for the same. YSlow is really cool, offers good guidelines also. However, i am very confused with so many things around (Though it's good that people already invested time and have made nice g...
I'm hoping someone can clear something up for me. I'm using Rails 2.3.5, and I can access request headers in a controller action like this: def index if request.headers['...'] == '...' ... end end Or something similar. request.headers is an instance of ActionController::Http::Headers which appears to be a Hash. I would expect,...
Develop a elegant Pub-Sub architecture in web-oriented-apps is a real challenge. Although there are some very interesting solutions using long-polling-connections (e.g. COMET) and repetitive-timeouts (e.g. js setTimeout). IMHO AJAX push still looking like a layer of tweaks and hacks forcing the innocent HTTP protocol. So what do you thi...
Hello, I am coding a python (2.6) interface to a web service. I need to communicate via http so that : Cookies are handled automatically, The requests are asynchronous, The order in which the requests are sent is respected (the order in which the responses to these requests are received does not matter). I have tried what could be e...
I am working with urllib2, and trying to extract the headers in a printable form from a Response object. Presently I am printing str(response.info()), however what is printed, is itself a Python string (at least to my understanding).

Im using a web service, so I want to use an async thread for the HTTP authentication request and another thread later to make additional service requests while my main thread runs. Would like to see a good example of how to do this and how to show busy messages somehow in main app. How does the main app know when the thread finished? An...
HttpServletRequest.getParameterValues() returns a String[] containing all values of a given HTTP request parameter. Does anyone know if the order of the values in this array is guaranteed by specification to by the same as the order which those values were passed through in the request? For example, if I have the GET query string x=1&x=...
I have a website that contains pages with many small images. The images are set to cache, with the headers containing: Expires "Thu, 31 Dec 2037 23:55:55 GMT" Cache-Control "public, max-age=315360000" When someone loads a page, however, it seems that we are still forced to send a 304 response for each image--better than sending the w...
