That is a default which is set in HTTP.c #define DEFAULT_FIRST_WRITE_DELAY 2000 #define DEFAULT_SECOND_WRITE_DELAY 3000 The reason for the delay is to allow the client to wait for the 100=Continue response, before proceeding to transmit the body of the request. You don't have to wait if you don't want to though, and you can decrease the delay by calling HTTP_setBodyWriteDelay() That routine does silently enforces a min delay of 0.2 secs, which hasn't been explained to me. I took away that restricion in my version, and was able to specify a zero delay without any problems. Can't remember if the library still inserted an Expect 100-Continue header in my request though, and not sure if there is a way to stop it doing so.

Anyone have ideas what I'm doing wrong that's causing that? My calls, in order, are: HTLibInit("retrieveProduct()", "1.0"); HTLib_setSecure(YES); HTLib_setSecure(YES); HTTransportInit(); HTProtocolInit(); HTMIMEInit(); converters = HTList_new(); HTConverterInit(converters); HTFormat_setConversion(converters); presenters = HTList_new(); HTPresenterInit(presenters); transferEncoders = HTList_new(); HTTransferEncoderInit(transferEncoders); HTFormat_setTransferCoding(transferEncoders); contentEncoders = HTList_new(); HTContentEncoderInit(contentEncoders); HTNetInit(); HTAAInit(); HTEventInit(); HTNet_addAfter(responseArrived, NULL, NULL, HT_ALL, HT_FILTER_LAST); HTHost_setEventTimeout(10000); HTRequest_setOutputFormat(request, HTAtom_for("text/xml")); anchor = HTAnchor_findAddress(uri); HTAnchor_setFormat((HTParentAnchor*) anchor, WWW_FORM); result = HTPostFormAnchorToChunk(params, anchor, request); HTEventList_newLoop(); And the responseArrived() function merely calls HTEventList_stopLoop(). Thanks for your assistance, --Sean
