HTTP POST / GET / HEAD

[59FIFTY]

Im new to Autoit and its functions. I was trying to connect to a regular HTTP WebServer over TCPConnect, but I just cant figure out how to do it. I know there's a UDF for INet but the function _INetGetSource can only gather informations from a Server, and not send them (viceversa)

Is there an easy way so set up a socket connection?

TCPStartup()
Dim $url = "www.msn.com"
Dim $port = 80
Dim $serverIp = TCPNameToIP($url)

$fsocket = TCPConnect($serverIp,$port)
TCPSend($fsocket, $HTTP_POST_HEADER)
$recv = TCPRecv($fsocket, 4096)
TCPCloseSocket($fsocket)

PS: This forum has a beautyfull them

As stupid as it might sound, but I searched for over half an hour and didnt find anything, only the _INetGetSource and some SMTP POP3 stuff

an http request chould look like this:

GET /dir/file.ext HTTP/1.1 @CRLF

Host: www.something.com@CRLF

From: email@address.com @CRLF

User-Agent: ProgramName/1.0 @CRLF

Connection: Close

@CRLF

change the stuff in italics to meet your needs. and be sure to include ALL the @CRLF's, or it won't work right. And be sure to keep the Host line and the Connection line, but the From and User-Agent lines can be removed if you want.

and here is what you should recieve in response:

100 Continue @CRLF

(STATUS CODE) (STATUS DESCRIPTION) HTTP/1.x @CRLF

header: something @CRLF

anotherHeader: more something @CRLF

(there could be any amount of headers here) @CRLF

@CRLF

(BODY OF PAGE)

oh, and when you recieve, there will be a status code. Here is a list of the codes (numbers) and the descriptions (words)

200 OK

(successful)

404 Not Found

(the requested file doesn't exist)

301 Moved Permanently

(the requested page has moved permanently to the url in the Location header)

302 Moved Temporarily

(the requested page has moved temporarily to the url in the Location header)

303 See Other

(The resource has moved to another URL (given by the Location: response header), and should be automatically retrieved by the client. This is often used by a CGI script to redirect the browser to an existing file.)

500 Server Error

(An unexpected server error. The most common cause is a server-side script that has bad syntax, fails, or otherwise can't run correctly.)

I know how a HTTP POST GET HEAD works, but thanks anyway. I have problem with Autoit not with w3c HTTP
