Hi all, How do I use HttpServletResponse.setContentLength() to support persistent (keep-alive) HTTP connections (I heard this helps slightly speed up surfing, as the same connection is re-used)?
What is the purpose for Content-Length? > http://www.w3.org/Protocols/HTTP/Object_Headers.html#content-length > > Content-Length: int > Implies that the body is binary and should be read directly from the > communications link, without parsing lines, etc. When the data is part > of the request, prevents the escaping and de-escaping of the > termination sequence . > > @@@ This should be part of the MIME header, as it applies to any binary > encoded part. Note HTML is the first internet protocol to allow MIME > "binary" encoding. In MIME, the use of Content-Length is currently > allowed only for external messages. Can someone explain the above to me?
