Reply to Mark Deazley You sir, you are my hero! This post is so useful, thanks! where can you see the version though? Thanx for sharing this infoAnd where the heck is the version? how to see the duration of persistant connection?? Daniel Villela 10 months agoThanksss, simple and practical Nam Nguyen H. 10 months agoDid API of every platform(Instagram, Discord, …) come from here? Thanks. It worked for this is very useful information, thanks for sharing this information with us. google extensions are very useful I also read an article on but the information which is mentioned in this article is not proper don’t go, do you know what does mean the double dots before parameter? For example:Request Headers:authority::method: GET:path: /api/data/v9. 0/$metadata:scheme: I do not know what does mean the “:”
Checking HTTP Headers – W3C
Checking HTTP Headers
This article describes several ways to check the character encoding information sent in the HTTP header of a web document.
It is important to clearly indicate the character encoding (charset) of a document served on the Web. Otherwise, a receiver may not correctly interpret the document. A Web browser, for example, may show random characters instead of readable text. One way of indicating the character encoding of a Web document is to put this information into the charset parameter of the Content-Type header.
In particular, it is important to note that the encoding declared in the HTTP header overrides all in-document encoding declarations in HTML and CSS files.
The i18n Checker
The Internationalization Checker tool, developed by the W3C, checks web pages for various internationalisation issues. It also has an information section that summarises key internationalization-related information about a page, such as character encoding and language declarations, etc. That section tells you whether an encoding declaration is used in the HTTP header, and if so, what is the encoding.
The i18n checker tool is particularly useful, since it also shows you other encoding declarations used in the document, and raises a flag if there are differences.
Use a Web-based service
There are several services that show you all the HTTP headers and the (HTML) source of the document returned from the server
after you enter the address of the document you are interested in:
Delorie HTTP Header Viewer
Rex Swain’s HTTP Viewer
Note: W3C has no relationship to any of these services.
In the HTTP headers, look for the Content-Type header, and in particular for the charset parameter, e. g.
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Note: The charset parameter may not be present. This is okay if your document itself indicates its character
encoding.
Use the W3C Markup Validation Service
To check the markup, the Markup Validation Service has to make sure it correctly decodes the
document it checks. It will show an error message if it cannot find information about the encoding, or if it finds conflicting information, or if it
cannot decode the document according to the information it found.
To know the encoding that the validator found, you can use the extended interface.
In this interface, you can also select the show source option, and then visually check that the source is
correctly interpreted. This is useful to check that you actually use the right encoding. It is not always possible to mechanically check
whether for example, a document claiming to be iso-8859-1 is actually encoded using iso-8859-2 or some other encoding.
Use telnet or another command-line tool
This requires a bit more expertise, but may be easier to automate. Another command line tool may be wget (with a -S or -s option).
By the way
Some servers transcode the Web documents they serve to different character encodings for different clients. This happens for example with
some servers in Russia. This requires special care, because your browser, running e. g. on a Mac or on a Windows system, may indicate using a
different character encoding than the encoding given to you by a Web-based service or the W3C Markup Validation Service (which are mostly based on
UNIX systems).

display the full request headers your browser sends – Manytools
When your browser requests a web page from a server via HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol), it sends a set of headers with various bits of information about itself. Below you can see the headers sent by your browser.
