Well, i don't know so much, but that doesn't have to do with chunked encoding, but Partial Content support, right ? And partial content is requested by client (IE) if Content-length is very big ( I guess ... ) Maybe, IE requests a PDF file (GET) and if it sees a Content-length very big , cuts downloading and re-send a GET request with a range of bytes. Chrome looks to perform something like that behaviour --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
