Is there a way of capturing an advanced setting?

[LTeeple]

Good morning,
Can anyone recommend a client-side script that can possibly capture the HTTP1.1 setting
in IE: Tools->Internet Options->Advanced

Thanks for the help!


Cheers!
Laura

I am not sure what you want to do. If you want to set this value for other machines, use the IEAK:

I want to be able to tell if a user has HTTP1.1 set.

Thanks for your response.


Cheers!

I was afraid of that.

I think the best answer is No. And even if a trick makes it possible at the moment, it will not be possible under the Security plans for IE and the various OS versions in the very near future.

This is a guess, but being able to directly query Internet Option settings of a web page visitor is just not a reasonable path to follow. MSFT will block you every step of the way from now on.

What you could do as a security neutral approach is to do a challenge/response test under the protocol.
