Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Here's to hoping somebody can please clarify.

In the Webmite Manual v3 for the

WEB TCP READ  cb%, buff%()

it states that

If there is data that has been received then the BASIC program must respond with one of the WEB TRANSMIT commands in order to respond and close the connection.

In my use case there is no WEB TRANSMIT FILE cb%, filename$, content-type$ option where content-type$ is "text/json".

I have instead used
WEB TCP SEND a%, buffer%()
WEB CLOSE TCP CLIENT a%

where buffer%() has the following headers and is correctly assembled, sent, received and processed by the requesting page.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-type:text/json
Connection: keep-alive
Content-length:...etc

Does the above code fulfil the WEB TCP READ requirement to respond and close the connection? It works for me but the web server does get lost when there is high traffic.
