Problem in identifying HTTP request field for enoded type (base64 or binary)
Please support our C++ advertiser: Intel Parallel Studio Home

Hi all,
I parse HTTP request(using post method) coming from client.file can be either of binary or base64 encoded.I need to process them differently for each case.
(if(binary type)
call method1();
else
call decode();
// and then
call method1()))
How will I come to know which kind of encoding method is used at client side from header?Is there any field describe "encoded method:base64" in header?
i.e. "Content-Length" tells length of data.
Regards,
Kiran

Hi. I wrote a simple test web server script in Perl a few months ago. Did I read any HTTP specification documents before starting to find out what I'd need to parse? Hell no, I just listened on port 80 and reverse engineered the protocol from there 
! Well, kind of. The HTTP requests I got from Opera browser during testing looked somthing like this:
So, basically the browser said what file it wanted and then listed what kind of response would be acceptable (including the expected encoding type). I hope this helps.

The one question you should not ask when teaching a new language structure is "Do you understand?". Do you understand?
