'  The PUT request to be sent will look like this:

'  PUT /request HTTP/1.1
'  Content-Type: application/jsonrequest
'  Cookie: JSESSIONID=1234
'  Content-Encoding: identity
'  Host: json.penzance.org
'  Accept: application/jsonrequest
'  Accept-Encoding:
'  Content-Length: 72
'  
'  {"user":"doctoravatar@penzance.com","forecast":7,"t":"vlIj","zip":94089}

'  First, remove default header fields that would be automatically
'  sent.  (These headers are harmless, and shouldn't need to 
'  be suppressed, but just in case...)

http.UserAgent = ""

'  Suppress the Accept-Encoding header by disallowing 
'  a gzip response:
http.AllowGzip = False

'  If a Cookie needs to be added...
http.SetRequestHeader("Cookie", "JSESSIONID=1234")

'  Add the Content-Encoding: identity header.
http.SetRequestHeader("Content-Encoding", "identity")

'  Modify the default "Accept" header:
http.Accept = "application/jsonrequest"
