If you're shoveling out any Java applets, you will want to support HTTP/1.1 and keepalive connections, otherwise your applet download time using IE4 will be enormous. If you're going to write an embedded web server, get yourself a good etherent monitor program, several PCs (& Macs if you care about them) and a good selection of browsers, and test the hell out of it. All WWW browsers suck in various ways, but they all suck differently. ;^) -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
