In the book I am reading it details different ways of supporting virtual hosting. It claims that for name-based virtual hosting the http 1.1 host header value is used, than the context. I never understood that the http host header value was really used for any thing, and that it was always the context which was used.
What is anyone else's experience?

Please ignore post, I have no idea what I am talking about.

Prior to HTTP 1.1, the virtual host was determined by the target IP address. HTTP1.1 added header support so that more than one virtual host could respond at the same IP address.

Customer surveys are for companies who didn't pay proper attention to begin with.
