A better way to add a custom header is to register an "additional 
header" exit procedure and provide the custom header through that 
procedure.   There's an example in the EXAMPLE20 member included with 
HTTPAPI.

While you could certainly accomplish the same thing by modifying do_post 
or do_get, you'd have a hard time upgrading HTTPAPI, since you'd have to 
re-make the change with every new version of HTTPAPI...   and that would 
discourage you from updating, which in turn would discourage you from 
getting the latest features and bug fixes...   If I were you, it'd be a 
path that I'd avoid.
