                                   Finally!

I've been working on this project [1] for a bit over a week, and I finally,
finally got it working. For the entire week I was fighting what appeared to
be a loosing battle with a Microsoft IIS server when all of a sudden it
started working.

I had been working on the project today and appeared to be regressing at an
alarming rate as I was tweaking code that by all rights should work when I
made a final tweak (isolating the code that builds the client headers for the
GET and POST commands into a single common routine) so that I could be sure
of what headers I was sending for which methods (I need both for this site))
and Lo! It worked!

Looking over the code I see that the only change from the headers I was
sending before have the Cookie: header being sent back as the second header
instead of the third.

This, on top of the other bugs [2] I have to code around. Grrrrrrrrrrr …
