Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73425&edit=1 ID: 73425 Comment by: rtrtrtrtrt at dfdfdfdf dot dfd Reported by: spam2 at rhsoft dot net Summary: get_headers() and default GET requests Status: Closed Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Performance problem PHP Version: 7.0.12 Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: what insane idiots breaking ETAG / "Not Modified" Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-08-19 13:35:28] cmb@php.net $ curl -I https://design.google.com/icons/ HTTP/1.1 405 Method Not Allowed ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-08-19 13:28:49] rtrtrtrtrt at dfdfdfdf dot dfd > Can you prove your claim? ;) easily: try to limit methods in httpd to GET/POST and HEAD will still work it's nonsense to fetch the body when you are only interested in the headers ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-08-19 13:26:25] cmb@php.net > what's the point of that insane default while no server refuses > HEAD requests Can you prove your claim? ;) Anyhow, this is not a bug, but rather a feature request, and because a $context parameter is available as of PHP 7.1.0, I consider it sufficiently fulfilled. I'm not claiming that GET is a particularly reasonable default here, but changing the long standing default would require the RFC process[1]; feel free to pursue it.

The respective translation teams are supposed to "sync with EN" as soon as time permits. It would be good if the translations pointed out whether they are outdated, but unfortunately PhD does not support that yet. Anyhow, many translations could need some help (the German translation certainly does!), so consider to submit patches via <https://edit.php.net/>. FTR: the $context parameter has been documented[1], and the German translation has been synced[2].
