Ok the RFC reads on Partial Content
(http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.2.7)...

- Either a Content-Range header field (section 14.16) indicating
        the range included with this response, or a multipart/byteranges
        Content-Type including Content-Range fields for each part. If a
        Content-Length header field is present in the response, its
        value MUST match the actual number of OCTETs transmitted in the
        message-body.

What do they mean by the message-body? Is it the data about to be
recived or the header data?
