Re^2: How to read just part of a url's content

You mean just get part of the file located with the URL?

No, "file" is a less accurate accurate word. The content identified by a URI is not necessarily a file.

That's a semantic argument. Is a file a space on a hard drive? Is it a stream of bytes? A sector on a tape? There's an application where I work that describes a file as 100 variably sized blocks. My point was that the URL just describes the location of something. You already have it. -Paul	[reply]
