I don't think you can prevent chunking in HTTP 1.1. You would have to
send as HTTP 1.0, which would require a configuration change in the web
server.

And I would suggest you change your hosting immediately. PHP 4.x has
been out of service for years, and if your hosting company is still
running it, I would be afraid of what other old software they're running.
