Yes, but depending on what you're actually doing you may be able to cache enough to skip large chunks in subsequent requests. -Stut
Well, I'm working on a script that can transfer large files over HTTP. The point is that I have a HTTP proxy at school, and so I can use HTTP only. Moreover, they blocked downloading files bigger than 1MB, and so, I wanted to transfer files in packets of lets say 990KB, so that they can be downloaded fine through the HTTP proxy. This means i'm calling repeatly the script for a next chunk, and that's why I wanted to keep the FTP connection open. Tijnema
