Hi,

I would like to know how to retrieve (request) the HTTP headers. I've been reading some documentation about the LWP HTTP Headers module, but I can't find a way to print or manipulate the HTTP headers.

Thanks in advance.

 
fairly vague question, but the LWP::Simple module has the head() function

head($url)

Get document headers. Returns the following 5 values if successful: ($content_type, $document_length, $modified_time, $expires, $server)
