As a followup to my own post, I tried the test code in Internet Explorer (I was using
Navigator before), and got slightly more consistent results. The file sizes flipped
back and forth by 3 bytes. When I saved each version, one was three bytes larger than
the other (but both were 26 bytes larger than the content-length given).
Also, the beginning of the file is consistently repeated at the end of the block, as
if the series wrapped over form the tail to the head to fulfill the write request.
This happens even when I try to count the bytes and only write the exact
content-length as given by system/options/CGI. Could the content-length be off?

I started with the general example in the How-To Guide ("CGI Post Method") but found
that the content-length seems to vary between calls. First it tells me the content is
6229 bytes long, then I repeat the same call and the content is 6291 bytes, then 6299,
6303, et al.
