If the web-server don't feel like doing HTTP/1.1, it can fall back to HTTP/1.0 in its response. [At least, that's how I understand it...] So this whole multiple-file thingie may not work if, as I suspect, HTTP/1.0 doesn't support multiple files in one connection. Secondly, I think it's probably just a Bad Idea (tm) to try to force HTTP to do 2 files in one connection anyway -- It just complicates your life, and is giving you headaches already... How much worse will it get in a year? That said, I suspect that fgets() is looking for a particular character all by itself on a line that determines the end of a file. Control-D, possibly. So, *MAYBE* sending a chr(4) (control-D) after each file will work... Even if it does work, I still think it's a Bad Idea -- I'm not sure fgets() is DOCUMENTED to use the Control-D, so there's no guarantee it will keep working. More headaches next week/month/year.
