This happened to us as well.  The HTML was correct, and no exceptions were
being thrown. We solved the problem by doing the following:
    - Switched Servlet Engines. (Previously using JRun, and switched to
ServletExec on Apache)
    - Installed the most recent browsers available  (at that time, 4.0
browsers) on all machines accessing the Servlets using a browser (UNIX, NT, 95,
98).

These two changes alleviated the truncation problem, and the servlets which
read and wrote to an Informix database using various helper classes, (using
type 4 driver) ran visibly faster.

I hope this information might be of some help.
