Question

I am trying to set my user agent string in the HttpClient apache object in Java but I cannot find out how to do it.

Please help!

Also I am trying to enable redirects to true but also cannot find this option within the HttpClient object.

Thanks

Andy

HttpClient httpclient = new HttpClient();
httpclient.getParams().setParameter(
    HttpMethodParams.USER_AGENT,
    "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.2) Gecko/20100316 Firefox/3.6.2"
