Jacque,

Here is how I access the Google server with a put url.

When I use the full URL with "get url" it returns a 404. When the server
person does it from Rails, they get data back. I need to get the same data
back, so I guess checking the headers won't work. The server responds with
stuff I need to use.

So if "get URL" is the way to do it, then the "get" should give me the data.
The 404 is odd, but maybe we can figure out that part.
