Revision as of 13:30, 5 April 2015

This assignment has 15 points. For each of the following five HTTP GET and POST requests:

  • give a transcript of the HTTP request going out and the response returned by the ajax-notes server, as CAPTURED BY YOU using socat as discussed in Tutorial 9 (1 point),
  • briefly explain how the browser made this request (did the user type an address in the URL bar or did they interact with a page, and if they interacted with a page how did that page generate that HTTP request) (1 point), and
  • briefly explain what code the server ran to generate the response. (1 point)

In other words, you should be giving an HTTP request example and then explaining the browser context that generated the request and the server context that generated the response.

Submit your answers on cuLearn in a text or PDF file by 10 AM on Monday, March 30, 2015. No other formats will be accepted.

  1. GET /
  2. GET /javascripts/notes.js
  3. GET /getNotes
  4. POST /updateNote
  5. POST /newNote

Solutions

Note I inserted blank lines between the request and response in the transcripts below. I also deleted the socat request/response metadata that sometimes gets inserted just before the end of the previous request/response (e.g., the timestamp inserted before the closing > of the trailing <html> tag).

GET /javascripts/notes.js

Note that in order to prevent the notes.js response from getting mixed in with the jQuery response (which happened concurrently), I had to change layout.jade to instead load the script from code.jquery.com (so it wouldn't appear in the socat output). Specifically, I replaced the existing jquery loading line with "script(src='//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.2.min.js')".
