Examples

Example #1 Examples using headers_list

<?php

/* setcookie() will add a response header on its own */
setcookie('foo''bar');

/* Define a custom response header
   This will be ignored by most clients */
header("X-Sample-Test: foo");

/* Specify plain text content in our response */
header('Content-type: text/plain');

/* What headers are going to be sent? */
var_dump(headers_list());

?>

The above example will output:

array(4) {
  [0]=>
  string(23) "X-Powered-By: PHP/5.1.3"
  [1]=>
  string(19) "Set-Cookie: foo=bar"
  [2]=>
  string(18) "X-Sample-Test: foo"
  [3]=>
  string(24) "Content-type: text/plain"
}
