That's the formatting done for the "chunked" content-type. I really don't
recall exactly how it works. All I remember is that each set of hexadecimal
digits [that's what they are] somehow must represent the next "chunk" to be
transferred - it might be a byte count. In any case, if you're REALLY
interested, go look it up in the RFC for HTTP/1.1 - it's explained in better
detail there.

Internet is a wonderful mechanism for making a fool of
yourself in front of a very large audience.
