Are these pages very small (under 1024 bytes) and are you on a fast local network? If so, you may be running into the problem where if Navigator reads the entire body of the entity in the same read as the headers, it won't recognize keepalive status. We added the fflush() to stop this from happening, but on a very fast network, it still can sometimes. -- Alexei Kosut The Apache HTTP Server http://www.nueva.pvt.k12.ca.us/~akosut/ http://www.apache.org/
