I was talking about the server side - I've got a simple server that just
logs whatever it receives on port 80. The server is only receiving the HTTP
header from the Palm, but not the message body.
Here's what the server gets from the PalmVII:
POST /test HTTP/1.0
accept: text/html
user-agent: PalmPilot

If you're recieving the header & the two CR/LFs then
you've got all that the server sent afaik.
are you sure that whatever CGI is responsible for processing
this POST is actually sending anything more?
