using NSURLConnection to get only the HTTP header

Subject: using NSURLConnection to get only the HTTP header

Hello all,

I'm using NSURLConnection to download a file from a web server.

However, now I need to be able to check the last modified date in the HTTP header for the file without actually downloading the file.

Is this possible to do with NSURLConnection? I was hoping that I could look at the header in - (void)connection:(NSURLConnection *)connection didReceiveResponse: (NSURLResponse *)response

and then cancel the download, but using tcpdump, I see that I'm downloading the whole file anyway.


Anyone have any ideas how to do what I want?

thanks
-john
