Summary

Sends the http HEAD method to the specified URI. Returns the http response header for the specified URI.

Parameters
uri The URI of the document whose response header is being requested.

Usage Notes

The http functions only operate on URIs that use the http or https schemes; specifying a URI that does not begin with http:// or https:// throws an exception.

If an http function times out, it throws a socket received exception (SVC-SOCRECV).

Example

xdmp:http-head("http://www.my.com/document.xhtml",
     <options xmlns="xdmp:http">
       <authentication method="basic">
         <username>myname</username>
         <password>mypassword</password>
       </authentication>
     </options>)
=> the response header from the server
