How to tell the server what type of data you want back from an http request using the "q" syntax. The "Accept" header, of course, sets the types you want returned. The "q" variable tells your preference for each type. "q" is the quality, with 1.0 meaning you want this type above all, a lower value means you don't want this type as much. So in this example we want both json and xml, but we want json more.
Accept: application/json;q=0.8,text/xml;q=0.7
And remember, "Content-Type" tells the server the format of the POST data you are uploading.
Content-Type: application/json
