So what happens if we attempt to override it. So logically, this has been inserted by the XmlHttp parser during the request to. If you take out the line call x.setRequestHeader(“Content-Length”, 11) and do not specify a content-length, both HttpBin and Wireshark’s trace of the connection report Content-Length: 11\r\n, which is correct. You can see also that although the tcp length is 0, the client and the server increase the sequence number by 1. With these two tools we can analyse the header states. HttpBin provides us with an echo of the header and WireShark provides us with a wire capture of the transport packet being sent between the XmlHttpResponse provider and the HttpBin server. Let us take a standard code block to use for our tests and use the services of the good people at for a public message echo system. Multi-platform: Runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, Solaris, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and many others. To monitor HTTP traffic including request and response headers and message body from a. Wireshark has a rich feature set which includes the following: Deep inspection of hundreds of protocols, with more being added all the time. So I thought that I would explore the issue to see for my own amusement, what was actually going on. (Note that Wireshark can also use tcpdump capture filters. In them, I observed that the coder was religiously attempting to set the Content-Length request header, something that when using MsXml I don’t usually do – it’s a different story with PHP.Įqually, I observed that the programmer was using Len() to define the length of the content body for text, but ASP usually operates using an internal UTF-16 encoding to represent strings, thus does it follow that Len() will give the correct value? I was browsing around the web earlier looking for inspiration on making PowerShell send asynchronous XmlHttp requests when I came across a block of VBScript examples.
