One quick question about content-length...

OK, CONTENT_LENGTH works great for htmlx files. Now what I'd like to do is just have the output filter handle all html files by doing AddOutputFilter HTMLATEX;CONTENT_LENGTH .html It works peachy keen for html files that, hah, contain equations. Normal HTML files provide erratic content-length headers and stall the browser out. My first thought was to store the original content length and if a filter.req didn't have any equations, to restore it manually. Then I remembered the "well, we tried it and it didn't work" comments from the debianUK site. (I'll stil give it a whirl later, though). Any suggestions? Does the *order* of the AddOutputFilter arguments make a difference? Is HTMLATEX;CONTENT_LENGTH different from CONTENT_LENGTH;HTMLATEX? (My guess is that it is different, but one can never tell). Anyway, I've done a fairly substantial rewrite (insomuch as something with only 250 lines can be referred to as 'substantial') so if you want to take a gander at the code, it's at http://www.meangrape.com/htmlatex/src/htmlatex.py -- Jay.
