Chunked Requests

My experience shows that servers (IIS, Apache) do not accept chunked requests, even when they produce chunked response. --Javalenok (talk) 10:13, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

rename this article

I would suggest renaming this article to "HTTP_Transfer_Encoding_Chunked" This would make it follow the form that the other HTTP headers articles follow. karlhiramoto (talk) 13:09, 14 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Chunked Requests

I don't think chunked requests are possible. I've been trying to do this for a little while and according to http://stackoverflow.com/questions/338624/why-does-iis-not-support-chunked-transfer-encoding it's not possible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.169.13.118 (talk) 15:52, 1 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removed "Citation needed" in the paragraph about chunked data transfer in combination with deflate compression. Compressing the whole payload results in better compressen, instead of compressing individual chunks. I then performed a test with FireFox 3.6.13 and IE 9 beta. Firefox can handle both, but IE 9 can only understand the data if the payload is compressed as a whole, not as inidiviual chunks. So I removed the "Citation needed" because it may suggest the opposite may also be possible.
