ID: 32906 Updated by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: papasha_papovich at mail dot ru -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: cURL related Operating System: Windows XP SP1 PHP Version: 4.3.10 New Comment:
That's not curl's fault. If the server you are connecting to doesn't send a content-length response header, there is no way for curl to know the content-length. The headers from http://www.softmath.com are: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sun, 01 May 2005 16:55:48 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_ssl/2.8.22 OpenSSL/0.9.7d Connection: close Content-Type: text/html You will find that many servers won't send a content-length for dynamically generated content.
