<H3><A name="jdk-12-bugs">JDK 1.2 betas lose parts of responses.</A></H3>

<P>The http client in the JDK1.2beta2 and beta3 will throw away the first part of
the response body when both the headers and the first part of the body are sent
in the same network packet AND keep-alive's are being used. If either condition
is not met then it works fine.

<P>See also Bug-ID's 4124329 and 4125538 at the java developer connection.

<P>If you are seeing this bug yourself, you can add the following BrowserMatch
directive to work around it:

<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>
BrowserMatch "Java1\.2beta[23]" nokeepalive
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>

<P>We don't advocate this though since bending over backwards for beta software
is usually not a good idea; ideally it gets fixed, new betas or a final release
comes out, and no one uses the broken old software anymore.  In theory.
