How to Keep-Alive CGI?

[AlbertoD]

This is what gtmetrix say about keep-alive:

[quote][h]Enabling Keep-Alive connections in Apache[/h]

Apache enables Keep-Alive connections by default, however you can explicitly turn them on by adding the following line to your httpd.conf file.

KeepAlive On

Having said that, if your site is running on a shared host, you probably won’t have access to httpd.conf and will therefore have to live with whichever setting your hosting provider has chosen. Contrary to what some websites suggest, adding a Header set Connection keep-alive directive to your .htaccess file will not actually enable Keep-Alive connections, but it will send browsers misleading information about the server’s capabilities.[/quote]

I guess you need access to your apache httpd.conf and the .htaccess directive will not help you.

And from Derk’s link:

However, Keep-Alive support only is active with files where the length is known beforehand. This means that most CGI scripts, server-side included files and directory listings will not use the Keep-Alive protocol. While this should be completely transparent to the end user, it is something the web-master may want to keep in mind.
