This is my code. accept returns the connected descriptor but in the read function the buffer(array) contains some garbage values. I am trying to capture the request made by the browser. I have configured the proxy so it will connect to the desired port. please help

bzero(&servaddr, sizeof(servaddr));
servaddr.sin_family = AF_INET;

return 1;

servaddr.sin_port = htons(4616); /* daytime server */

fprintf(stderr, "bind failed\n");
exit (1);
fprintf(stderr, "binded\n");
}
if ( listen(listenfd, LISTENQ) < 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "listen failed\n");
exit (1);
fprintf(stderr, "listning\n");
}
//for ( ; ; ) {

if ( (connfd = accept(listenfd, (SA *) &cliaddr, &len)) < 0 ) {
fprintf(stderr, "accept failed\n");
exit (1);
}
fprintf(stdout, "accepted\n");
//}
for(;
{
while ( n=read(connfd,buff,1500) > 0) {
buff[n]=0;
printf("%s \n",buff);
if (fputs(buff, stdout) == EOF) {
printf("fputs error");
return 1;
}
printf("[%s] \n",buff);
}
}
if (n < 0) {
printf("read error");
return 1;
}
if ( close(connfd) == -1) {
fprintf(stderr, "accept failed\n");
exit (1);
}
close(listenfd);
return 0;
}
char array wont display what it reads from the connected descriptor
