:P MiRc is stubborn to fetch data if it equals 1 word or little text for some reason maybe mostly all the time if no HTML tags are in
I haven't had any issues where a txt file only has a version # as an update check without HTML or other text. Use HTML/1.0 as mentioned and there should be no problem with that. HTML/1.1 shouldn't really be used in most cases as HTML/1.0 usually works better for grabbing socket data.
