[Simpleweb-Support] DomainHandler with HTTP 1.0

[Jeff N. <je...@ne...>]

Hello Niall (and all),

After a tedious 2 day debugging session, I finally figured out why  
PayPal's IPN (Instant Payment Notification) system was not working  
with my server.

I'm using the virtual hosting facilities of Simple (through the  
DomainHandler) and PayPal is (for whatever reason) sending their  
notifications with HTTP/1.0.  This creates a problem, as the  
DomainHandler only works with HTTP/1.1 requests (which should include  
a 'Host' header).

Is there any way around this?  I thought of writing a specialized  
DomainHandler that would fall back to parsing its own 'Host' if none  
was available, but I cannot find anywhere in the Request where the  
entire URL is available.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Jeff
