I think whether the client uses `Expect: 100-continue` is a decision similar to deciding whether the client uses, say, a Transfer-Encoding. The client may also be specifically configured to use a different version of the protocol, like IE is configured to talk HTTP/1.0 to proxy servers by default. Besides, the client may not even handle the 100-continue response properly. -- Björn Höhrmann · mailto:bjoern@hoehrmann.de · http://bjoern.hoehrmann.de Weinh.
