.SH SYNOPSIS
\fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER\fP. With HTTP 1.0 or without chunked transfer, you must
specify the size in the request.
-NOTE: if you have issued a POST request and want to make a HEAD or GET
-instead, you must explictly pick the new request type using
+When setting \fICURLOPT_POST\fP to a non-zero value, it will automatically set
+\fICURLOPT_NOBODY\fP to 0.
+
+If you issue a POST request and then want to make a HEAD or GET using the same
+re-used handle, you must explictly set the new request type using
\fICURLOPT_NOBODY\fP or \fICURLOPT_HTTPGET\fP or similar.
.IP CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS
Pass a char * as parameter, which should be the full data to post in an HTTP
Using POST with HTTP 1.1 implies the use of a "Expect: 100-continue" header.
You can disable this header with \fICURLOPT_HTTPHEADER\fP as usual.
+
+When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPPOST\fP, it will automatically set
+\fICURLOPT_NOBODY\fP to 0.
.IP CURLOPT_REFERER
Pass a pointer to a zero terminated string as parameter. It will be used to
set the Referer: header in the http request sent to the remote server. This
Pass a long. If the long is non-zero, this forces the HTTP request to get back
to GET. usable if a POST, HEAD, PUT or a custom request have been used

+
+When setting \fICURLOPT_HTTPGET\fP to a non-zero value, it will automatically
+set \fICURLOPT_NOBODY\fP to 0.
.IP CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION
Pass a long, set to one of the values described below. They force libcurl to
use the specific HTTP versions. This is not sensible to do unless you have a
/* Does this option serve a purpose anymore? Yes it does, when
CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS isn't used and the POST data is read off the
callback! */
