Re: curl_multi_perform - how to know if data is entirely sent.

Thanks for the quick response.

still_running will drop to 0 only after you get http - response[ie
request complete]. I want to wait only till request is sent to server.
Will read response later in receive function.

For ex. I am requesting for URL cnn.com
still-running will drop to 0 only after the whole cnn.com page
contents are displayed.

Is there a way to determine when the request is completely transferred.

Thanks
