HTTP 1.0 is like that. Keeping the same connection open for multiple requests is feature added to HTTP 1.1 IRC. I'm guessing, but using HTTP 1.0 should stop keep alive, although if I were you I would have a look at the HTTP 1.1 spec to see how you should handle keep-alive and how you can turn them off. -- Simon Edwards Animated Design, Melbourne http://www.animated.net.au/ Ph: (03) 98850990
