You seem to want on the ... Network Layer (3): A connection based socket using the Internet Protocol Transport Layer (4): A stateful connection using TCP Application Layer (6): HTTP Just that you don't ask for HTTP directly, but shoehorn a packet based socket into sending microscopic strings. In this case I recommend cURL, which you can feed with all the header data at once and sends your complete request in one packet. That'll also handle most of the HTTP specialties. Not all data transmissions via IP are TCP either. A good bunch is sent via stateless UDP. That would not be considered a stream though. I'm just getting at the name "ClientSocket" here, which can entail more than TCP/IP streams. -- Marco
