No. It is what mod_cgi requires. Apache implements chunked in the core, where any module can make use of it if they so desire. As I've said many times before, implementing a new protocol service using CGI is a bad idea. Making HTTP requirements based on the limitations of CGI is even worse. ....RoyReceived on Friday, 20 August 1999 20:48:41 UTC
