&nbsp;I'm evaluating Automise and have a question about HTTP Get File.

I'm using HTTP Get File action to download a web page (html). &nbsp;The encoding for the web page is sent in the HTTP Content-Type header. &nbsp;Is there any way to get access to this header when using HTTP Get File? &nbsp;Otherwise I don't have any mechanism to detect the encoding of the HTML file I'm downloading.

Thanks

Hi Nick,   
  
 The HTTP Get action doesn’t support getting the headers, you should be able to use the WGet action and add “–save-headers” to the Extra Command Line Arguments property (select action -\> Properties tab -\> Custom).

 Paul.
