Hi all
My current setup:
RN-171 WiFly module
sparkfun XBee explorer serial
Pic24 micro connected to the xbee serial
I have it all working fine etc. 
Okay, this is what I can do.
I can connect the rn-171 to my wireless network just fine
I can connect to the rn-171 from a browser just fine
I can pass the web requests to the pic micro just fine
I can return HTML stream back to the browser, 99% just fine
I am not doing anything “special” in regards to the configuration of the RN-171.
1. set wlan phrase <string>
2. set wlan ssid <string>
3. set join 1
4. set ip local 80
5. set comm idle 5
6. set comm open 0
7. set comm remote 0
9. set u b 38400
The deal is that I cannot currently disconnect the connection using the micro, but use the “idle” timeout on the RN-171
So, some questions
#1. How can I disconnect the connection via the micro in lieu of the “idle” timeout? It is not clear about this in the manual, using GPIO-5
#2. Not all browser play well…Firefox and IE I can send data back just fine, and after the timeout, it flushes it etc and renders just fine
#3. On Chrome, I can “see” the html stream in the browser as it is being pushed, but after the 5 second timeout, it complains about “connection closed” error…
#4. What should I be passing back in the stream? This is what I am passing back. Are there some other “HTML Standards” stuff I am missing?

#5. For others that have done this, is this the way you guys did this? Am I totally missing the ball here?
Any advise/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
