"Lab": 3.x(??): HTTP Headers

I recieved a 200 response. response for HTTP HEAD request

Part 2: Chrome Web Inspection bit

My User-Agent is Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/116.0.0.0 Safari/537.36

This page didn't have have a content type header (not explicitly anyways)

The date that the page was last modified NOT SET

Picture Questions

It's content-type: image/jpeg

The Referrer was: https://web.ics.purdue.edu/~gchopra/class/public/pages/webdesign/05_simple.html

The referrer is that URL since it’s the page with the HTML tag that embeds “prettypicture.jpg”

Another web page

Yes, I did get a 304 response code.

I assume that the “cache-control” header tells the browser that it doesn’t necessarily need to re-request the same content
