Moreover, If I press Ctrl+N, it opens same page in external IE browser. all images are displyed properly there. Once I do this step and then after, when webBrowser Control refresh page a...
I am working on creating a simple HTTP server as part of a Java server. One component of this Java server is to capture images live from a webcam. Currently I am writing the images out to disk, and serving them through Apache. What I want to do in the end though is write the JPEG to memory in a List of JPEG objects and then have a H...
I've configured a MultipartResolver in my Spring MVC webapp and set its maxUploadSize property to 1MB. <bean id="multipartResolver" class="org.springframework.web.multipart.commons.CommonsMultipartResolver"> <property name="maxUploadSize"> <!-- 1MB max --> <value>1048576</value> </property> </bean> When a user ...
Is there a HTTP header that makes sure that no content will be displayed? Even if there is some content in the body? edit: I take the answers as a "no", and accept the fact that headers have no control over the content. ...
I have a web application where the requested URL is used in a REST-like fashion. However, if no URL is entered (just the domain) I re-direct to http://www.example.com/home and then my home controller is loaded. What HTTP status code should I use for this re-direct? This process takes place in my index.php script using a simple header('L...
I have a WebService reference (.NET CF 3.5) based on SoapHttpClientProtocol. My question is - is there a way to determine whether a connection to WebService is established other than calling a web method? Can I check at any time that the underlying connection is established and get its status? Regards ...
We have a very dynamic site which uses session storage extensively to keep track of things. However, as we have switched from using just HTTP to HTTPS for sensitive forms we have discovered that the session storage is scoped to the scheme. For example setting a key value on a HTTP page will not be accessible from a HTTPS page, and vice ...
Is it possible to access an svn log without having svn installed? I'm trying to access a log of recently changed (committed) files on Assembla, but the hosted web server from which I'd like to send this request doesn't have svn installed. Since all I'm doing is sending the svn server a few parameters like my name, password, output format...
Is this valid?: http://www.SomeURL.com/Index.php?123=xyz Will I be able to access the value 'xyz' under the key '123' the same ways as usual? ...
I'm trying to understand how URIs are supposed to look like. Looking at this reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Representational_State_Transfer#RESTful_web_services, I am a bit confused by how POST is supposed to work. The example given is this: http://example.com/resources/142. I'm associating "142" as a specific item in "resource...
I would like to determine the type of a file (generally UTF-8) by reading the first part of the file and analysing the content. (The type is specific to my community but not under my control and not covered by MIME/MediaType which is normally TEXT_PLAIN). I am using the 'org.restlet' library on the client to analyse the header with Req...
OAuth like google OAuth. Let's put the communication between Consumer server and OAuth server aside. Let's talk about the browser side and consumer server communication, at least, browser must hold a cookie to identify the session between consumer server. Right? But, I didn't see it. ...
When I do http POST request via Web form, Is there any difference(practically or theoretically) between parameters specified in the URL and parameters passed with form on the server side? Can I do whole POST with url parameters and expect same result as with form inputs? Like: <form action="/?id=2" method="post"> <input type="...
I've written a web service and it's nice that you can just navigate to http://whatever... and see the response to GETs. Is there some nifty way I can do something similar for PUTs? (presumably involving some tool to write the info that's PUTed). Obviously I'll have automated tests for these methods, but I'd like to be able to play arou...
I copied an existing and successfully running site to a new development server. The login on the new server is now broken, and I tracked it down to the fact that although the session cookie is renamed ... ini_set('session.name', 'DOMAIN1'); ... the browser keeps storing the sesssion cookie as PHPSESSID. When I remove the above line...
Often I use Cache-Control: no-cache or Cache-Control: max-age=0 The spec says must-revalidate is for max-stale... (the server issue max-stale?) So if for normal web servers, Apache, or Rails with Mongrels, then I think usually there is no max-stale, so must-revalidate is not needed? ...
In my webapp I'm using HTTP Location: headers for redirect (e.g. POST/redirect/GET). But the target locations have to be dynamic (e.g. login.php?dest=pagexy.php). We all know that any user-modifiable input has to be properly escaped to prevent XSS, so header('Location: '.$_REQUEST['dest']); looks wrong. Simple urlencode-ing can only ...
HTTP PUT isn't entirely cross browser so Rails (I'm using Rails 3) supports using POST and passing the _method query param. This is great, but it doesn't seem to work when sending JSON. Example: $.ajax({ url: window.location.pathname, type: 'POST', contentType: 'application/json', data: JSON.stringify({_method:'PUT', p...
In HTTP there are two ways to POST data: application/x-www-form-urlencoded and multipart/form-data. I understand that most browsers are only able to upload files if multipart/form-data is used. Is there any additional guidance when to use one of the encoding types in an API context (no browser involved)? This might e.g. be based on: da...
I develop an asmx web service (i.e. ASP.NET 2.0). There's a piece of code that may read the contents of the HTTP request (via HttpContext.Current.Request.InputStream) while processing it. I realise that InputStream may only be read once for a request, and I make sure I never try to read it more than once. The problem seems to be that i...
