Socket: The connection was reset

Yep, thanks... but I already checked out the return value and the problem is "If the socket is blocking, receive waits until there is data to be received.". The following
socket blocks and the server doesn't respond:

while(true) {

	Socket cs = s.accept();
	ubyte[] header;
	ubyte[1] buffer;
	while (cs.receive(buffer)) header ~= buffer;

	cs.sendTo("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 11\r\n\r\nHello World");
	cs.close();

}

cs.receive() blocks (because no more data is available) - cs.sendTo() and cs.close() isn't called, because cs.receive() waits for more data. I can solve the problem by using
non-blocking sockets:

while(true) {

	Socket cs = s.accept();
	cs.blocking(false);
	ubyte[] header;
	ubyte[1] buffer;
	while (cs.receive(buffer)) header ~= buffer;

	cs.sendTo("HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\nContent-Length: 11\r\n\r\nHello World");
	cs.close();

}

But... how can I make sure that I got all data sent by the client/browser?
