Hey, Jim, here are some Rev code lines that do a few things with the  
HTTP headers
(think of the headers as parameters that are passed to the web server  
to change how it performs, just like a function in Rev)

on testHttpHeaders
   get url "http://www.google.com/search?q=10187%20Grinding%20Rock%20Dr%09Grass%20Valley,%20CA%2095945 
  "
   put libURLLastHTTPHeaders() into revHeadersToAnalyze
   put revHeadersToAnalyze into msg -- so you can read what Rev sent
end testHttpHeaders

answer is... the following 3 lines
     GET /search?q=10187%20Grinding%20Rock%20Dr%09Grass%20Valley,%20CA 
%2095945 HTTP/1.1
     Host: www.google.com
     User-Agent: Revolution (MacOS)
----
Using the LiveHeaders add-on tool in Firefox 3 on Mac OSX shows the  
following User-Agent header variable

    User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.5; en-US;  
rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5 GTB6 FirePHP/0.3
----
thus for me the Rev code would be
on testHttpHeaders
    get "User-Agent:"
    get it && "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.5;"
    get it && "en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5 GTB6  
FirePHP/0.3"
    set the httpHeaders to IT
    get url "http://www.google.com/search?q=10187%20Grinding%20Rock%20Dr%09Grass%20Valley,%20CA%2095945 
  "
    put IT into msg
end testHttpHeaders

Hope this helps.
