Talk:IGB Headers
It's a shame if we can't get HTTP_EVE_NEARESTLOCATION. I had an idea for a cool intel app that made use of this header. I hope it will be added one day. Also, could the documentation be updated with the method for how to request trust? - Nareg Maxence 20:37, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
Use cases for HTTP_EVE_NEARESTLOCATION
I am currently using HTTP_EVE_NEARESTLOCATION in two cases with the current IGB.
1. A web based starbase refill tool. It shows the correct starbase in the web page by the use of the HTTP_EVE_NEARESTLOCATION header. Basicly it gets the moonName and thus the moonID out of it. With this information it is easy to select the correct starbase from the database.
2. The moon scan database. The webpage fills in the correct location information including the moon. To get the moonID i need the HTTP_EVE_NEARESTLOCATION header.
Please remain compatibility to old IGB applications and reenable the HTTP_EVE_NEARESTLOCATION header. I know there are no technical reasons for removing it.
