Question:

User Agent String seems to not be sent in http(request/response) yet http.QuickGetStr works fine!

Jan 21 '17 at 19:22

Code Scrap: Dim request As New ChilkatHttpRequest Dim http As New ChilkatHttp Dim response As ChilkatHttpResponse success = http.UnlockComponent("Super_Secret") If Not (success = 1) Then 'Crash and Burn here Exit Sub End If request.AddParam "Size", "1" request.AddParam "page", "2" request.AddParam "Name", "Randy" request.AddParam "Code", "ABC" Set response = http.PostUrlEncoded("http://ragsoftinc.com/dev/index.php", request) //just Safely displays POST and GET vars

strhtml = response.BodyStr

so I get an error HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request from openresty I'm told due to not sending a UA? html response and LastErrorText also session log

Answer

Wow, I do not know how I missed the request.AddHeader method!

request.AddHeader "User-Agent", "what ever UA string you want"

I kinda thought there would be a default as there are in other classes.

anyway solved my own issue, thanks
