Getting a Request.Headers value

Question

Very simple I\'m sure, but driving me up the wall! There is a component that I use in my web application that identifies itself during a web request by adding the header \"X

Answer 1

The following code should allow you to check for the existance of the header you're after in Request.Headers:

if (Request.Headers.AllKeys.Contains("XYZComponent"))
{
    // Can now check if the value is true:
    var value = Convert.ToBoolean(Request.Headers["XYZComponent"]);
}
