There are settings that will tell palm.net to leave the output of the 
server alone.

No, palm.net is always in the loop with INetLib.

This is tricky... we have over 100 pages on INetLib and its quirks in the 
book I helped write, "Palm OS Web Application Developer's Guide".  Using 
INetLib for doing wireless communication isn't fun; there are a large 
number of glitches that you'll have to code around.
