concerning "notepad at codewalkers dot com"'s code:
this code is pretty neat, but i just wanted to note that using the "HEAD"-method instead
of the "GET"-method in the http-request might be preferrable, since then not the whole
resource is being downloaded...
http/1.1 definiton snippet:
Section "9.4 HEAD"
The HEAD method is identical to GET except that the server MUST NOT return a message-body in the
response. The metainformation contained in the HTTP headers in response to a HEAD request SHOULD be
identical to the information sent in response to a GET request. This method can be used for
obtaining metainformation about the entity implied by the request without transferring the
entity-body itself. This method is often used for testing hypertext links for validity,
accessibility, and recent modification. [...]
-- snippet end ---
the code would then be...:
-- snippet ---
fputs($handle,"HEAD $uri[path] HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: $uri[host]\r\n\r\n");
-- snippet end ---
