Apparently, I did not read your email closely enough. Yes, with REBOL, I did
not get 3 "packages" (my term), but one lump payment. I have no clue what IE
does with the info, but I do recall it took about 3 seconds to finish. When
I set the wait to 3 seconds, it took over 9 seconds for the 3 packages, so I
*think* Apache is doing OK in that regard.
BTW, and possibly of no particular meaning whatsoever, yesterday I did a
search of registry, and found an entry that IE does not cache the
multipart/mixed and multipart/x-mixed-replace, I guess because the later
could be huge files. I thought it was interesting that it was there at all!

Also, btw, I my Apache did not offer the multipart/x-mixed-replace as a mime
type, so I added it to mime.types in the conf folder.

OK, I misunderstood. Maybe I misread, which I seem to be doing *a lot*
these days. Time for a vacation/holiday.
Finally, thanks, Brett. Your code and effort were appreciated by me. I
have no use at this time for this technique, but it is nice to keep in
practice with CGI stuff.
