Here's how to add your own headers to an HTTP request, download the page, display the headers and the page's body, and then use a regular expression to search for a pattern: //Uses TRegExpr library www.regexpstudio.com uses [...] httpsend, RegExpr; procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject); var Header : TStringList; Contents : TStringList; URL : String; Result : String; Expression : string; begin Header := TStringList.Create; Contents := TStringList.Create; with THTTPSend.Create do begin try //Proxy launched on localhost:50000 ProxyHost := 'localhost'; ProxyPort := '50000'; //Synapse already adds the following : How to remove and add one's own? //User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; Synapse) //Header.Add('User-Agent : Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT)'); Header.Add('Accept-Language: fr-fr,en-us;q=0.7,en;q=0.3'); Header.Add('Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7'); Headers.AddStrings(Header); URL := 'www.cnn.com'; //HttpGetText(URL, Contents) doesn't return headers if not HTTPMethod('GET', URL) then begin ShowMessage ('ERROR : ' + IntToStr(Resultcode)); end else begin ShowMessage(Headers.Text); end; //Let's save page's body (excluding headers) into a string and display it into a label Contents.LoadFromStream(Document); Result := Contents.Text; Label1.Caption := Contents.Text; //Let's check if we can find '<body>' in the page with TRegExpr.Create do try ModifierI := True; Expression := '<body>'; if Exec (Result) then begin label1.Caption := 'Found'; end else begin Label1.Caption := 'Not found' end; finally Free; end; finally Header.Free; Contents.Free; end; //try end; //with THTTPSend.Create do begin end;
