I've been having this problem for a while. Lets say you get source of a page through recv(), if that URL that you requested redirects you to another URL. A web browser will just redirect you to a new page. But in c++ winsock it gives blank source. So how can i know the redirect link so i can get the source?

First of all, congratulations on posting on September 11. To answer your question, the answer is that the server uses a certain HTTP header to redirect the page. (Or it uses a meta http-equiv tag.)
