I’m building a REST API.. Sometimes the server returns the response with chunked transfer encoding? Why is that?!
Why can’t the server always return the response in the same encoding?
The problem is that I don’t know how to read the data when its returned as chunked!?

neeed moore downvotes… to breeeath…
Assuming your server is using Apache, this is expected behaviour. You can disable it by putting this line in your
.htaccessfile:However, you should consider modifying your reading code to just support different content encodings. What library are you using to make the HTTP request? Any reasonable HTTP library can handle chunked requests. If your requesting code is written in PHP, use curl. http://php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php
