I would almost expect that if a module's filter is of the appropriate type then is will not see the underlying representation (e.g. chunked or not). However that impression may be due to me usually working with output filter. The same may not be the same for input from the client. Also, Apache 2.2 mod_proxy has a feature to dechunk request bodies, see: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html#request-bodies It sounds like your on a web server rather than a proxy, but the mod_proxy implementation may provide you with some clues. Hope that helps, Paul -- _______________________________________________ Surf the Web in a faster, safer and easier way: Download Opera 9 at http://www.opera.com Powered by Outblaze
