	Is there a spec somewhere as to how a POST method must be sent in 
order to work with an httpd process? This is without a browser. I would 
like to open a port to the www server, and send it a POST method. The 
problem is the "CONTENT_LENGTH" is being set to -1. 

	I must need to send something else besides the data. I read over 
the html2.0 spec on forms, but this seemed only to cover the client side. 
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
