You could do something like
function header {
[ $1 ] && URL="$1" || read URL
wget -O /dev/null -S "$URL"
}
which would give you the option of either using a quoted argument with
the header function, or running the function without arguments and
having it read your URL on one line of stdin (which isn't processed by
your shell and therefore doesn't need quotes).
