Do you have the option to turn on and off the "Reuse connections" option (or something like that). It may be that the SSL transfer block size varies by browser, and your server is trying to reuse an existing connection to continue the next block and that isn't supported.If this exact test works with http:// and fails with https://, then I would suspect your server first and foremost. POST is designed specifically to support effectively unlimited data (as opposed to GET which isn't).HTHJohn-- John PeacockDirector of Information Research and TechnologyRowman & Littlefield Publishing Group4501 Forbes BoulevardSuite HLanham, MD 20706301-459-3366 x.5010fax 301-429-5748-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
