note 83017 added to function.curl-setopt

I just spent the last 45 minutes banging my head against my keyboard because when using libcurl for a lighttpd server I would get a 400 Bad Request Error. It turns out, that despite what has been mentioned in other comments, when using the CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER option, you must use \r\n as newline separators for each header NOT \n. For some reason lighttpd will not accept them. Other webservers will however. Example: <?php $str = "Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5\r\n"; $str .= "Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7\r\n"; $str .= "Keep-Alive: 300\r\n"; $str .= "Connection: keep-alive\r\n"; curl_setopt($this->curl_handle, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array($str)); ?> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 71.163.30.249 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.curl-setopt.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/83017 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/83017 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/83017 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
