Hopefully there exists a provision to specify the "BYTE RANGE" in "HTTP request" to hint the Web-Server about the Length of data Client Browser can accept. Exploring more on 'HTTP Partial Download' may help.

The page is a big file Before the whole response has come, client wants to indicate to server that it is no more interested in the data. At the same time, I do not want the TCP connection to be closed. Since I want to make use of Keep-Alive and keep the TCp connection alive How can I do it ? Can sending "Connection:close" do the job ? But I guess it will tear down the "Keep-Alive" connection in HTTP/1.1 Am not sure about its behaviour in HTTP 1.0 Thanks Diwakar
