You can have a HTTP post which never ends. But probably it is not what you really want. Since you control the client part, why not send as many HTTP requests as you need ? > without closing the connection. You have not full control of connection close with HTTP protocol. If the server decide to close it, it will be closed. You can request a persistant connection using the property Connection and setting 'keep-alive' string as value.

A post which never ends may have problem with filtering proxies because they will not see the end of document and maybe they are buffering the document until the end before processing it. So it would not works. If you use many post one after the other, there will be no special problem. Contribute to the SSL Effort.
