You need to support partial gets: if the get request contains (for example) Range: 500000- then you only send bytes from that offset. If this is just a static asset then it's nothing to do with rails: you need to make sure that your web server's configuration allow this. If it's something being sent via send_file etc. then i'd hope that rails would handle this for you Fred > > Is this a Rails issue or am I way OT? > > -- > Posted viahttp://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
