Read a line

[ZicZag 0]

Hi,

I'm working on an encryption software which works with a key-file,

This key-file will be uploaded to a server and the encryption process ends but when it comes to decryption I don't want the software to download the whole key-file first but to read a line and then decide whether to download the whole key or show an error message.

*I don't wanna use any Php code here just with the Autoit* is it possible?

This is not possible unless the webserver supports it.

Can you explain me how does the web server supports such a thing? and why some doesn't?

Webpages can have Serversite scripts/programs and clientsite scripts.

The serversite scripts/programs determine what information is presented to the client, so if you want a single record to be fed to the client you need some sort of Serversite script/program.

It's not possible for my case

is there any possible way to stop the download when it reaches to a known data? like just downloading a few kb of the file and then terminate the download?
