| response module: | |
| Functions: | |
| flush() | Flushes output buffer to client, after this no more headers or cookies can be sent as headers are already sent to client. |
| header(headerName, headerValue) | Sends HTTP header to client, return True on success and False when the call fails. Warning: this function will return False is headers are already sent, so be sure to use it before sending any output to client. |
