I'm actually a little surprised that worked; one of the major differences between HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 is that all HTTP/1.1 requests MUST include a Host HTTP header, so technically a HTTP/1.1 request without such a header is malformed.
- ttfkam 3y agoWeb servers have always had to be written for the web clients that existed, not how they should have existed. Sadly, a 100%-compliant web server (or client for that matter) would be greatly hobbled as to who it could communicate with on the real web. Although I do think the situation is far better now than it was 20 years ago.
