parse a subset of HTTP header to identify host web

The HTTP protocol is all contained in the data portion of TCP packets.

As an assignment I need to parse HTTP headerfields (for purposes of this question lets only consider host web address) only using string parsing functions, I cannot use any existing libraries to do that. I tried to find a bitwise segmentation of HTTP header, but failed. I really do not know what to do now. Any suggestions?

Thank you beforehand

What I have already done is extracted Ethernet, IP and TCP header information and have parsed data in hexadecimal form, i.e.

Data

MeNa has showed the trick to separate HTTP header fields. But to do that I need to convert my data payload to string. I tried to do the following way:

unsigned char * data;
data = (unsigned char *)(packet + ETHERNET_HEADER_SIZE + IP_HEADER_SIZE + TCP_HEADER_SIZE);
int length = header_length - (ETHERNET_HEADER_SIZE + IP_HEADER_SIZE + TCP_HEADER_SIZE);

char string[length];
for (i = 0; i < length; i++) {  
    string[i] = (char)data[i];
}
printf("%s ", string);

this prints out a string, but mostly of little squares, rather then charachters :(

I think there is no bitwise segmentation of HTTP header. in the HTTP, each header ends with "\r\n". so, all you need is to look for the next "\r\n" and pick it out.

Something like:

char httpRe[] ="GET / HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: http://stackoverflow.com/\r\nReferer: https://www.google.com/\r\n\r\n";
char * parser = strtok (httpRe,"\r\n");
while (parser != NULL){
   printf ("%s\n",parser);
   parser = strtok (NULL, "\r\n");
}

This what you are looking for?
