I am getting a page from a (crappy) server that uses cookies to track sessions
when doing a request on the server with HTTP/1.0 everything is fine and the
server accepts my cookie (using wget)
BUT when i use curl it won't accept my cookie... i tested this for a while
(using proxys and stuff) and the only thing i can see thats different is
that wget does a HTTP/1.0 get and curl a HTTP/1.1 request

It's not nessacery to use HTTP/1.1 cuz i only want the data and don't want
to do fancy stuff ;)

I'd like to see such an option in curl... i can retrive in php how a page
is being called (1.0 or 1.1) and can take action on it.. Using curl on such
a server will limit the data i'll can get for example.

I hope this is a good reason :)

Greetz,
