Thanks a lot!  That's very useful.

I'm trying http-server-form-posts to upload a file and it seems that
the connection is not being closed, even if the file transfer is
finished.

What I'm doing is:

,----[ web-server.scm ]
| #!/usr/bin/csi -script
| 
| (use spiffy http-server-form-posts web-scheme)
| 
| (http:add-resource "/form-post"
|   (lambda (req args)
|     (let* ((form-fields (request->form-field-alist req))
|            (file-input (alist-ref "file" form-fields string=?)))
|       (with-output-to-file (form-field:file-name file-input)
|         (lambda () (display (form-field:body file-input))))
|       )))
| 
| (start-server port: 8080 root: "." debug: #t)
`----

,----[ index.ws ]
| (html
|  (body
|   (form 'method "post" 'action "/form-post"
|         'enctype "multipart/form-data"
|         (input 'type "file" 'name "file")
|         (input 'type "submit"))))
`----

When I run web-server.scm, access http://localhost:8080/index.ws and
upload a file, spiffy shows:

[request 0 from 127.0.0.1; thread8 (of 1) started...]
[read: "POST /form-post HTTP/1.1"]

[handling POST request...]

The file is transfered, but the connection doesn't seem to be closed.

Is there anything I'm missing?

Best wishes,
Mario
