[spook-l] Refreshing JPEG snapshots

[Vladimir Lasky]

Hi Nathan,

I decided to do my own dirty work for a change.

In http.c, I added the following to the beginning of find_http_location() in
order to throw away any query string included in the URL:

/* replace first occurence of question mark (start of query string) with null*/
char* querystart;
querystart = strchr(path, '?');
if (querystart != NULL) *querystart = 0;

Also, I tested spook for cacheability with the following tool:

http://www.ircache.net/cgi-bin/cacheability.py

It complained that the HTTP Date header was missing and that it had the
potential to cause quirks. Just for fun, I added some code at the front of
handle_GET() to produce this header:

/*Insert code to generate date header */
        char datearray[50];
        struct tm *timeptr;
        time_t tm;
/*end addition */

       struct http_location *loc;

/* Added for date header */
        tm=time(NULL);
          timeptr = gmtime(&tm);
        strftime(datearray, 50, "%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT", timeptr);
/*end addition */

and then further down below:

add_header( req->resp, "Date", datearray );

Your comments are as always most appreciated.

Regards, Vlad.
