I'm only using TidTCPServer, but I found the information I need. My memo box was not big enough and had scrolled down missing the GET /test HTTP/1.1 on the first line.
Thanks anyway.

All the information you need can be found there I suspect.

All I need is to retrieve the URL path entered into the browser, and return some content based on that. I can currently do everything except determine the URL path. My IE browser is sending information like this. User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 5.1; Trident/4.0; GTB6.6; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; FDM; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.5.21022; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; Open Codecs 0.85.17766) Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Host: localhost:2323 Connection: Keep-Alive What I entered into the browser was http://localhost:2323/test and I need the "/test" to know what to send back. I assume I need to send something back to the browser to ask for the path. I could likely spend hours reading the HTTP 1.1 specifications but I'm hoping someone may know. Cheers, Ross.
