NAME

       cgiSetHeader - Specify an additional HTTP header

SYNOPSYS

       #include <cgi.h>

       int cgiSetHeader (char *name, char *value);

DESCRIPTION

       With  the  cgiSetHeader routine you may specify additional HTTP header lines such as Expires: or Pragma:.
       The order of header lines withing the HTTP header  has  no  significance.   You  may  call  this  routine
       multiple  times  to  set multiple headers.  They will be printed in the same order as specified, however,
       after the Content-type: header.

       This routine will only add the header to the internal stack, not print  it.   They  will  be  printed  by
       cgiHeader(3).

       This  routine  does  some  syntax  checking before accepting a new header.  The name of a header must not
       contain any newline, space or colon, otherwise it will be truncated.  The  value  must  not  contain  any
       newline, otherwise it will be truncated as well.

       To  set a cookie in your program you'll need to manually add additional header lines.  Please take a look
       at cgitest.c.  Basically, you'll need to add the following code:

          cgiSetHeader ("Set-Cookie", "Version=1; name=value; Path=/");
          cgiHeader();

       Please read the included file cookies.txt as well.

RETURN VALUE

       On success 1 is returned, otherwise 0.
