HTTP header vs. http-equiv

Post by cmb » Fri Jun 15, 2012 6:52 pm

Hello Community,

IMO CMSimple_XH should explicitely send the HTTP header:

Code: Select all

Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
in addition to specifying the charset by http-equiv.

Sending this header is recommended by the w3c, and according to rfc 2616 this must be respected by HTTP/1.1 recipients, what might help with some encoding issues.
