I just tried it out against Safari 3, IE8, Opera 9, and FF2. Only FF2 seemed to be affected by "Connection: close". FF2 seems to let me open an indefinite number of connections to a server if use "Connection: close", but only two connections are allowed if don't use it. I was surprised as well. FF3 is not affected by "Connection: close", only FF2. Kris
