Not sure why it's giving you an auth error when I can expect the site just fine and all of it's headers seem to be fine. I'm going to guess that it might have to do with the headers Torque is sending it, possibly the Torque user-agent or lack of it.

I'm pretty sure that it is forcing it to be a download (not incorrectly recognizing anything), instead of displaying html and text files.
When I tried setting up a ftp server it displayed the text in browser correctly, so it is probably intentional that it is a download instead of display.

Can torque seriously not handle download links? How does it fetch files that don't just display?

Brian Smithers:

function TCPObject::get(%this)
{
   //Example of TCPObject.file: /index.html
   //Example of TCPObject.host: blockland.us:80
   %this.send("GET " @ %this.file @ " HTTP/1.1\r\n");
   %this.send("Host: " @ %this.host @ "\r\n");
   %this.send("Content-Location: " @ %this.file @ "\r\n\r\n");
}

It's something wrong with the MIME type detection. It's not detecting plain text files or it's sending everything as a download (or a octet stream).

It can, the binary buffer thing should have worked. I don't know what's wrong. Try another web server. Or post the exact code you're using to download it.

The code I am using is in the OP, and the httpobject code that is getting just an unauthorized error is identical to brians. What is a binary buffer? Am I missing some function that would be getting the information otherwise? I have seen onbitchunk or something in some programs, but I thought that was a custom function or something. I'll try to look it up and see if adding it helps.
