Example of chunked transfer encoding

Question

I was about to test chunked transfer encoding with the following simple Perl script:

print "Content-type: text/plain\n";
print "Transfer-Encoding: chunked\n\n";
print "11\n\n";
print "0123456789ABCDEF\n";
print "11\n\n";
print "0123456789ABCDEF\n";
print "\n\n";

But I experience a browser error

Error 321 (net::ERR_INVALID_CHUNKED_ENCODING): Unknown error.

What is wrong with the above code?

It should be \r\n instead of \n\n (example at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunked_transfer_encoding) — Vincent Cantin

The last (zero-sized) chunk is missing.
