Hi. Ok, forgot to mention these points yesterday:
1. browser is (browsers are) not directed at a proxy 2. localhost and 127.0.0.1 are interchangeable 3. different Windows-browsers reactions reactions when requesting http://localhost:8999/ http://localhost:6789/ http://127.0.0.1:8999/ and http://127.0.0.1:6789/ : -netscape4.73: always displays dialog "network error..." -ie5: always shows "can't show page..." -opera5: "conn closed by remote server" -mozilla1.1: does nothing (except "Document done" in status line!) for requests to port 8999 - as opposed to dialog "connection refused..." when I request some non-existing port e.g. 6789! - lynx and w3m from the linux-box can't connect either That was yesterday. Today is a new day. Now ie5 changed its mind and shows the page "Hello World...", the other browsers though still don't. And after closing and starting everything again I'm back to where I was yesterday: ie5 doesn't show the servers response anymore. Hey, but when I enter http://localhost:8999 (note without slash at the end) ie5 shows the page again! And after that, ie5 accepts also the URL with slash in the end. The other browsers still don't show anything, but if I request from mozilla or netscape and visit the server from ie5 again, I can see the server counted the other requests as well! When I request from Opera the helloworldserver counts 5(!) requests. My first assumption at that point, that some browsers can't handle missing http-header informations (http-version, status-code, content-type ...) and subsequently reacted to this in their own specific way seems somewhat wrong. Because when I adjusted the helloworldserver code to respond with a minimal http1.0-header, it didn't change things for the better. So much for now. I'll have a look at Tweety now and read some more avalon docs to learn about using this framework. Greetings.
