You can use these hyperlinks to download any PQA up to 16KB (16353
bytes).
The size limit is due to limitations in the Palm.Net proxy.

**** I tried to explain in my earlier post, there are size limits for a
single transaction.  These are not insurmountable.

I guess my question is how to tell between what is text/bytes (normal
HTML) and between a PQA/PRC, would there be a need to
do
conversion server side or client side?  Its a PRC that is used and
downloads via a link to:

palm:PPDT.appl?URL_OF_APP

***** Use INetLib to "Get" the APP (just like you can "Get" a GIF).  Set
the library to CP compression 'none'.  You won't get diddle out of the
Palm.net compression anyway, since you don't have any HTML tags to
tokenize and there is only a limited amount of text in a typical app.

If you want to get around the 16K limit (not really 16K, but there is a
limit), see my earlier post, or implement your own compression (or
better still, both) - pre-compress the apps on the server and decompress
them when you receive them.
