16855,HTTP API No Follow Redirection,TheDeadMedic,dd32,"As highlighted in the following discussions, there's an issue when we '''don't''' want to follow redirects. On closer inspection, I believe only the cURL component is affected.

http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/11951/wp-remote-get-with-manual-redirect/11964#11964

http://groups.google.com/group/wp-hackers/browse_thread/thread/19dc7c7197f66754/9a60ad0b37ccaf1b?show_docid=9a60ad0b37ccaf1b&pli=1

Currently, {{{WP_Http_Curl}}} will throw a {{{WP_Error}}} if a redirection header was recieved, and the {{{redirection}}} argument is zero.

  ''Maximum redirects followed (0)''

The FOLLOWLOCATION option ''must'' be false, otherwise cURL treats the result as an error.


{{{
if ( !$r['redirection'] )
    curl_setopt( $handle, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, false );
}}}

As I say, as far as I know only cURL component is affected.
