No callback on HTTP response.end?

Hmm, I didn't know that was even possible - it feels a bit iffy - for instance if you're trying to serve up a file containing a JS function, if you try and serve up a variable containing the function rather than a variable containing a string representing the function, it'll get executed :s

I'm pretty sure you can just use the 'close' event though?
```
http.createServer(function (req, res) {
      //...
      res.on('close', function() {
        console.log('GET done.');
        digitalWrite(LED2,0);
      });
}
```
If you're interested, source of the HTTP module is here - it it's in C.

I'm not sure to understand what you mean. The callback is always the latest of the given arguments. If end(a), a() will be called. If end(a,b), b()... The type does not matter to tell which argument is what.

I will try this.

Thanks. It will spare me to ask useless questions :)
