This issue seems to be resolved. After further testing with other web hosts, I narrowed the issue to my web hosting provider, GoDaddy. They must have recieved error reports from others, since the problem was corrected mid Monday morning. I guess the person with the fix found that on his/her To Do List when they arrived for work.

I have several scripts that have been working correctly for months sending HTTP POST requests to a web server. Today they stopped working. I recieve a 408 error from the server which, as I understand it, means that the SL established a connection with the server, but did not send the POST request in a timely manner, so the server timed out. (According to W3 HTTP specifications: "The client did not produce a request within the time that the server was prepared to wait"). I have tried the scripts in different regions. They fail everywhere. I have tested the web server outside of SL, and it reponds correctly. As I said, the scripts have been working for months, so I do not suspect a script error (and I did reset, re-rez, etc). Anyone else having this problem, or can shed light on it? Thanks, Dash

Consider 2 Prims, A and B, a few meters apart. These are cubes so that their rotation is easily seen. Link them, making Prim B the Root. Add a Poseball Sit script to Prim A so that when sat upon, the avatar faces Prim B. Put a Rotation Script (llTargetOmega) in Prim B (root) with rotation about the Z-axis with clockwise rotation (speed = R). The result is that the Avatar orbits the root prim in the horizontal plane, and the avatar always faces Prim B (root). NOW... Unsit the Avatar. Add a Rotation Script to Prim A (the seat prim) with a counterclockwise rotation (speed = NEGATIVE R). Observe Prim A (seat) orbitting Prim B (root), and since Prim A is rotating in reverse from Prim B and at the same rate (but negative), Prim A (seat) always faces the same way, i.e. it's East face always faces East, or, it revolves around Prim B but does not rotate relative to the region coordinates. OK, that is good, and it what is expected, but NOW... Sit on Prim A and the Avatar does NOT always face East as I want it to. It continues to face Prim B (root) and rotates based on Prim B (root) rotation, not the combined net rotations as does Prim A (seat) when vacant. So.. I want my avatar to ride this merry-go-round and always face East. Any advice? Thanks, Dash
