$url = "https://www.example.com/";

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The GetHead method is deprecated:

# resp1 is a HttpResponse
$resp1 = $http->GetHead($url);
if ($http->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $http->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  Do the equivalent using HttpNoBody.
#  Your application creates a new, empty response object which is passed 
#  in the last argument and filled with the HTTP response upon success.
