Net SImple Client taking so mych time to download

[Alberto]

Hi, using the NT demo app, if you try to fetch the following page:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=YHOO

Its seams to be readed quickly, but, ince readed it takes so much time to display it.

Which can be the problem?
How can I speed it?
May be knowing the size I need to download?, I dont need the entire page.

Thanks
Alberto

This is another page that, not even take too long, but fails with time out.

http://www.google.com/finance?q=C

If you open it with a browser then no problem.

How can I fetch it?

Thanks

Weird!
I´m using Can Use proxy, Return Text Only and No Cache checked.
I click on the Go Fetch, it starts and when it reachs the following message
Downloading 95771... (expected size unknown)
It hangs and after a few seconds the Error trap called text appears.
I only need the first part of the page, may be limiting te size to read...
Is it possible?
THanks

Bruce,
How can I limit the size of the download?
Ex: I need to download the first 1000 bytes
Thanks

I guess so, after n bytes have been received via the .Process method, you could do a .Close on the connection.

Cheers
