    text
    copied!<p>I've written a little web server for an embedded project that is supposed to provide a web based UI for the device. While everything works fine using a PC browser a mobile browser fails to load all the resources (e.g. css / js / images) that are associated with the page.</p> <p>My server supports persistent connections w/o pipelining of requests. Currently I have reduced the maximum number of parallel connections to 1, so only one request is answered at a time.</p> <p>My debug observation is that the client, after first requesting the *.html file and then a style sheet, stops requesting any further resources listed in the head. The client does not disconnect.</p> <p>Do you have any idea as to what kind of mistake I could be making a PC browser would tolerate and a mobile browser would not?</p> <p>I just read online that most mobile browsers actually implement and use pipelining. Thinking about it further I figured that my current implementation might have problems coping with pipelined requests. Considering the shortage of memory on my STM32 I reuse the receive buffer as send buffer. I will verify shortly... </p> <p>...Nope, despite what is said >>><a href="http://www.guypo.com/mobile/http-pipelining-big-in-mobile/" rel="nofollow">here</a>&lt;&lt;&lt;, I cannot verify that the android standard browser, Dolphin or Firefox for Android actually pipeline their requests on a "keep-alive" connection.</p> <p>One more thing... It works perfectly fine when running the emulator from the Android SDK (at least for Android 4.2.2)</p> <p>Please comment on any additional information you might need.</p>
