This demo (which may take a few seconds to load) attempts to retrieves the front page of Amazon.com and reports its size in bytes. Debug mode is switched on to show what the script is doing. This demonstrates the script automatically following redirections and maintaining cookies and referrers between sessions.

$client = new HttpClient('www.amazon.com');
$client->setDebug(true);
if (!$client->get('/')) {
    echo '<p>Request failed!</p>';
} else {
    echo '<p>Amazon home page is '.strlen($client->getContent()).' bytes.</p>';
}
