Dear all, I found that some pages give a different reply, when queried with different tools. For instance:
wget http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sammydavisjr/message/56 retrieves a re-direction header (HTTP 302). Then, wget follows the redirection. On the other side GET http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sammydavisjr/message/56 retrieves a standard page (HTTP 200). Is this a bug (of GET, wget?) or a "feature"? I realized this problem when testing two different Java program to download pages from a URL. One uses a Java socket, the other uses Java URLConnection. Well, **even if the request and the headers sent are the same - byte-by-byte **, the two program gets different results. In particular, the raw socket communication behaves like "wget", the other using Java URLConnection, behaves like "GET". What do you think? Thank you, guys Diego
