        In fact, I agree with you. This is obviously broken, and IE (or any
browser) is not at fault when generating a blank page, when receiving
"Content-Lenght: 0".

        Then, if we look at the initial question Jim Christy made (which is
better for dynamic content: "Content-Length: 0" or a missing
Content-Lenght header?), you recomended him to use the first option.
That's what puzzled me. :)
