Thanks, this is the sort of info I am interested in. When I said "say I'm going to write my own HTTP/1.1-speaking gizmo", I should probably have made it clear that I am postulating a server-side gizmo, hence being interested in how the browsers out there in the wild will behave if this server-side gizmo doesn't behave just like typical existing web servers. > Communicator doesn't do 1.1 yet. > > [...] > > The default for direct connections in IE is 1.1; I believe that Opera > also uses 1.1 by default now. Innaresting. Does anyone have a pointer handy to any documentation for any of the popular browsers that indicates what all versions of what all protocols they do speak? An admittedly cursory search for such wrt Communicator didn't turn up anything. thanks, JeffH
