Description:
------------
Dear Developers,

In some situations HTTP_Client will return an empty body, even though browsers are perfectly capable of reading the given page.

Most recently I experienced the problem with an xxx collection messiestfacials.com, but I think more legitimate sites would behave the same.

The hader info returned for this address is -

Array ( [code] => 200 [headers] => Array ( [date] => Wed, 19 Jul 2006 11:53:50 GMT [server] => Apache/1.3.34 (Unix) PHP/4.4.1 [content-encoding] => gzip [connection] => close [transfer-encoding] => chunked [content-type] => text/html ) [body] => )

Strangely IE will read the page, and the same code works very well for other websites.

The code below generates this output.
Any Idea?
Thank you, waiting for your answer,

Test script:
---------------
require_once "HTTP/Client.php";
$client = new HTTP_Client();
$url="http://www.messiestfacials.com/";
$client->get($url);
$url_a = $client->CurrentResponse();
print_r($url_a);
$url_ = $url_a['body'];
echo($url_);

Expected result:
----------------
I would expect a non-empty body, and the page displayed.

Actual result:
--------------
Array ( [code] => 200 [headers] => Array ( [date] => Wed, 19 Jul 2006 11:53:50 GMT [server] => Apache/1.3.34 (Unix) PHP/4.4.1 [content-encoding] => gzip [connection] => close [transfer-encoding] => chunked [content-type] => text/html ) [body] => )
