Hi
I naively used Indy's Get() to download the contents of a web
site and parse out its data, but the server could tell it was a script
doing the navigation instead of a web browser.
How does a server tell the difference? Because a navigator uploads
information such as the PC's OS, screen definition, etc? Is there a
way for Indy or any other Dephi-friendly Internet component to fake a
web client?
Thank you.
