Thanks to PhiLho I learned how to parse buffers with binary 0 seperated contents...

I don't have to rely so much on the Firefox Web Developer extension anymore, thanks

Is it possible to host connections using this?

[PhiLho]

I still don't understand what you mean by "host connections"...
But then, I am not a network specialist.

Would it be too much to give me a short explanation what I can do with this function?

It is all in the header:

[Thalon]

Yes, I read the header, but it doesn't say me a word
With your explanation it is easier to understand for those who hadn't to do with it before...

Would it be possible to add Username/Password-Option for Proxy?

Thx,
Thalon

Well, looking at InternetOpen function, I see no way to give these. Perhaps it needs another function.
Note that AccessType=0 indicates to use the registry settings (basically IE's settings), so it probably does what you want.

This is a great script and seems like it would add a lot of value if added to the UrlDownloadToFile page in the documenation. If olfen or anyone else has the time and interest, I could use a volunteer to help adapt this for the documentation:

- Polish it up a little, such as providing more traditional indentation and adding a few more comments (such as why there's a loop that retries the request 5 times).

- Verify what version of MSIE and Windows is needed, and mention it in the comments (maybe it works on all).

- Consider whether there's any way to make it even easier to use: can the parameters be made more friendly; can using a proxy be made easier or explained better; comment on this script's relationship with MSIE's internal settings (if any); and anything else you can think of.

If no one has the time or interest to do this, I'll take care of it at a later time. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this script.

Thanks for considering adding the script to the documentation.
However, due to lack of time, it might well be 2 or 3 weeks, until I get to overhaul and comment the script.

It should be noted that this script returns the header information for the final destination and not necessarily the header of the specified url.

Is it possible to modify this script to properly capture the header from an url with a Location:(url) redirect?
