Earlier, I looked at documentation about this "problem," and it was not to be a particular problem with earlier versions of Apache. On a lark, I decided to try the proposed fixes, which meant doing two things. Change the name of the script to begin with "nph-" meaning non-parsed-headers (or something like that). Second, because the headers are not parsed, one must then send the appropriate headers (namely, "HTTP/1.1 200). I was successful in using a multipart/x-mixed-replace for a "streamed" text, and IE6 even showed the document! Brett's 3 gif cgi also "showed" up as all three gifs, but the characters, not the pictures. Then when embedded in an html page as an IMG, it downloaded the info, but no pic ever showed up. REBOL as an HTTP client downloaded similar content, but it was again, sent as one final package, not as three parts in a stream. So, at least I could not get it to work much better. I was pleased to at least see the text-only model print anything at all! Thanks for the additional input. --Scott Jones -- To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" in the subject, without the quotes.
