Programming the iPhone from Apple
Using NSURLRequest to send the HTTP Headers that Accompanied a Query Response
One of the more quirky programming (coding) tasks with the Apple iPhone relates to headers for http connections, and although not difficult, can be quite frustrating if the syntax isn't correct.
