Reading a SPDY packet

[Vimala Tadepalli]

Hi,

I am new to SPDY and trying to parse a raw packet of SPDY
Below is the hex of my packet after ssl decryption

80030001010001e400000001000000004000783fe3c6a7c200ca0135fe0000000a000000073a6d6574686f6400000003474554000000053a70617468000000012f000000083a76657273696f6e00000008485454502f312e31000000053a686f73740000000f7777772e796f75747562652e636f6d000000073a736368656d650000000568747470730000000a757365722d616765

I am successfully able to read till "80030001010001e400000001000000004000"

After this before number of name/value pairs (0000000a), there are few values "783fe3c6a7c200ca0135fe"
When i looked at wireshark, it says "header block"
What does this mean?
How do we parse this stream?

Thanks in advance
Vimala

http://dev.chromium.org/spdy/spdy-protocol/spdy-protocol-draft3-1#TOC-2.6.10-Name-Value-Header-Block

(note 2.6.10.1 that tells you it is zlib compressed and the compression state for the block continues for the lifetime of the session)
