[flexcoders] Re: Currently encountering a problem indigineous to the ie6 browser only

[mark_j_ellul]

Hi Matt,

I have come accross the same error doing a HTTP POST. I used Fiddler2 
(a windows tool to look at requests and responses) to prove that it 
was indeed a POST.

What I found was that if I do a HTTP Post I was receiving the Stream 
Error on my second request, which happened to be done in quick 
succession to the first. The HTTP Status Code Result of the Second 
Post was 200, and the response was the correct expected result.

PS The Cache was set to no-cache. So this is not the cacheing problem.

I am in the process of testing IE 7, as I have not hit this issue at 
all with Firefox 2 or Firefox 3.


Below is the Request and Response Information for a "Failed" Call 
that triggered the Stream Error.

Any Ideas on work arounds would be appreciated!
