Browser does not get the data...

Hi!
I am using ap_rwrite() and ap_rflush() for sending data to the client. 
In some cases the Browser (IE 5.0) does not get the information (or 
won't display it; or does not get everything). But with mozilla 1.3a it 
works very well.

Any suggestions, what the error can be?

Thanks in advance,
Josef

My guess is that the content length of the response is incorrect. IE 5 
will not display squat if the value of the content-length header does 
not match the length of the actual content. Netscape (and I presume 
Mozilla) will render and display whatever it receives.
