    I am writing a (http) proxy server in windows, it doesn't work I expect?

    Code:
    nfds = sacceptedclient > swebside ? sacceptedclient : swebside;
    	send(swebside, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
    	ZeroMemory(buf, sizeof(buf));
    	//tv.tv_sec = 2;
    	//tv.tv_usec = 20;
    	while(1)
    	{
    		FD_ZERO(&fds1);
    		FD_SET(sacceptedclient, &fds1);
    		FD_SET(swebside, &fds1);
    		if((j = select(nfds+1, &fds1, NULL, NULL, NULL)) == SOCKET_ERROR)
    			break;
    		//if(j <= 0) break;
    		if(FD_ISSET(swebside, &fds1))
    		{
    			ZeroMemory(buf, sizeof(buf));
    			i = recv(swebside, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
    			if(i > 0)
    			send(sacceptedclient,buf, i, 0);
    			else break;
    		}
    		if(FD_ISSET(sacceptedclient, &fds1))
    		{
    			ZeroMemory(buf, sizeof(buf));
    			i = recv(sacceptedclient, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);
    			if(i > 0)
    			send(swebside, buf, i, 0);
    			else break;
    		}		
    	}
    I receive http error 400.

    Why the whole buffer?
    Why not what is just valid data?

    > ZeroMemory(buf, sizeof(buf));
    If you're doing the right thing with lengths in send and recv calls, then all of these are a waste of effort.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
