Again, don't confuse the TCP /connection/ with the HTTP /conversation/. The TCP connection will stay open by default, but the client-to-server side of the conversation is considered done when the client sends a complete HTTP request. If you really want to piggy back your proprietary data on top of an HTTP request, you'll need to make sure chunked-encoding is set, and mimic the behavior of some streaming mechanism, such as a file transfer. Look at WebDAV or similar to see how that's done. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
