Thanks, I'll look into that -- I've seen the term before, but that's
about it.
Is it something the server tells the client to do?
And more to the point, will all popular browsers do it?

The application is something proprietary running on proprietary
hardware (32-bit ARM processor running a typical RTOS and a
BSD-derived network stack). The web server is a heavily modified
version of GoAhead 2.something.
I have to support the usual suspect list of browsers: IE, Firefox,
Chrome, Safari.

It's not an open-source one. Beyond that, I can't really say.

I can't ask the browser user to change settings.
