  Yeah..I did it and no '\0' was returned. Then I traced everything to 
find out what was happening.
  The final briefing: :) 
  
  Netscape 6.x handles in a different way some actions.
  The reason that Netscape doesn't show a correct Source is because 
Netscape don't use the currently showed page to get the source. It does 
another GET to get (get-get oops :)) the source.
  This way the 'View Source' option do another server access and this
time 
don't send the POST variables needed.

The browser request:
X.X.X.X - - [18/May/2001:13:58:44 -0300] "POST /netscape6.1.php
HTTP/1.1" 200 208 "http:
//server.com/netscape6.php" "Mozilla/5.0 Gecko/20010131 Netscape6/6.01"

The 'View Source' request:
X.X.X.X - - [18/May/2001:13:59:17 -0300] "GET /netscape6.1.php HTTP/1.1"
200 173 "-" "Mo
zilla/5.0 Gecko/20010131 Netscape6/6.01"

  Another problem on this subject is when creating a FORM that, via a
POST 
method will define a download.
  Netscape 6.x do the POST and ALSO DO A GET, so the result for the
download 
is wrong.
  Netscape X.xx or IE X.xx do just one POST and then download the file.

  I don't know if there is a way to change this Netscape behaviour... or
change 
everything to GET style ;)

Well..I think this is the answer for that 'strange behaviou'...
Thanks for everyone that helped on that...
See you,
