Hi All,
I hope you can help me, I need to remove the http headers an action
sends as response, and haven’t been able to find how.
A normal http response would have the following headers:
Cache-Control no-cache
Connection Keep-Alive
Date Mon, 22 Oct 2007 19:47:01 GMT
Content-Type text/html; charset=utf-8; charset=utf-8
Server WEBrick/1.3.1 (Ruby/1.8.6/2007-03-13)
Content-Length 1
Set-Cookie first_session
If I add the line “@headers.clear” to the action, the Cache-Control
header dissapears:
Connection Keep-Alive
Date Mon, 22 Oct 2007 19:47:28 GMT
Content-Type text/html; charset=utf-8
Server WEBrick/1.3.1 (Ruby/1.8.6/2007-03-13)
Content-Length 1
Set-Cookie _first_session_id=fc6285470aa256fbcedad6ad200eb437; path=/
I also found that by disabling the session with “session :disabled =>
true” the Set-Cookie header is not sent:
Connection Keep-Alive
Date Mon, 22 Oct 2007 22:25:10 GMT
Content-Type text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
Server WEBrick/1.3.1 (Ruby/1.8.6/2007-03-13)
Content-Length 1
Now I need to remove the “Server”, “Date”, “Connection” and
“Content-Type” header.
The reason I am doing this is that I need to save as much bytes as
possible, as this request will be sent in a mobile environment, and each
byte sent is “expensive”. I am also in control of the client making the
request, so there won’t be trouble reading the answer.
Any clues?
Thank you,
Gepetto
