HTTP Header reference?
 

Greetings.

I've been searching Google for a bit now, and either I'm too stupid or too tired to figure out the perfect search term for it.

Im looking for a reference list of HTTP header info -- e.g, I have a program on Firefox that I can modify to send any header info i want "Safari, Mozilla, Internet Explorer" that sort of thing -- so a web site will believe Im using IE when in fact I am using Firefox.

Does anyone have a reference of what the available "official" headers are? Also, a list of "OS header" responses would be nice, so I could fool something in believing I am a windows 3.1 machine.

Search term you're looking for is "User Agent"...

Thanks Unspawn. What would the OS type be?

See here or here. For example, for Internet Explorer 3.0 on Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11, use

Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; MSIE 3.0; Windows 3.1)

Hope this helps.

Thank you both for your help. This is very informative.
