[REBOL] Re: html post

Hi Andrew, On Thursday, August 8, 2002, 11:58:16 AM, you wrote: AM> When sending a large file, in my experience, the Rebol CGI script isn't AM> started until all the file information is sent by the browser and received AM> by the web server. This actually depends on the web server, I think. It is very reasonable to pass the control to the script as soon as possible, for the web server not to have to buffer and handle potentially very big data. Of course, if Javier is sure that his server is behaving as you describe, he can avoid using a loop; but since it is nothing this complicated, I think that being safe (and portable to other servers...) is not a bad idea. :-) Regards, Gabriele. -- Gabriele Santilli <[g--santilli--tiscalinet--it]> -- REBOL Programmer Amigan -- AGI L'Aquila -- REB: http://web.tiscali.it/rebol/index.r
