I am sending out post and get request with tcp in my script and I need to know how to genearte the Content Length correctly so they program doesn't hang.

All of the specifics of the HTTP 1.1 protocol are found in rfc2616

Content-length is discussed in secion 14.13 with additional information in section 4.4

Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon. It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

Hmmm. I haven't done much with raw TCP connections in AutoIt... one thing you can do to take AutoIt out of the picture and get a real "hands-on" feel for the responsiveness is to open a command window and telnet to the server on port 80 and then type in the request headers manually... it's a pretty interesting exercise.

Edit: Example

C:\> telnet www.something.com 80
GET / HTTP/1.1<enter><enter>
