target_host = "www.google.com" 
 
target_port = 80  # create a socket object 
client = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)

client.connect((target_host,target_port))  
 
# send some data 
request = "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost:%s\r\n\r\n" % target_host
client.send(request.encode())

response = client.recv(4096)  
http_response = repr(response)
http_response_len = len(http_response)
 
#display the response
gh_imgui.text("[RECV] - length: %d" % http_response_len)
gh_imgui.text_wrapped(http_response)

  s.connect((host,int(port)))
  s.settimeout(4)
  s.send(headers.encode())
  s.recv(800)
