Description [src]

This signal is emitted when request is about to be sent to the server. This signal can be used to modify the WebKitURIRequest that will be sent to the server. You can also cancel the resource load operation by connecting to this signal and returning TRUE.

In case of a server redirection this signal is emitted again with the request argument containing the new request to be sent to the server due to the redirection and the redirected_response parameter containing the response received by the server for the initial request.

Modifications to the WebKitURIRequest and its associated SoupMessageHeaders will be taken into account when the request is sent over the network.

Default handler:

The default handler is called after the handlers added via g_signal_connect().
