Chris Paulson-Ellis commented on MYFACES-1152:
----------------------------------------------

I'm no longer using MyFaces, so if anyone else cares, they'll have to update 
the patch.
Sorry,
Chris.

> HTTP Accept header not properly processed

>             Project: MyFaces Core
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: General
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
>            Reporter: Chris Paulson-Ellis

>
> In HtmlRendererUtils, the content type is chosen by comparing the HTTP Accept 
> header with a list of supported encodings. However, this comparison does not 
> prioritise the Accept header entries in the correct way, as specified in
> http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.1
> In practice, this leads to Firefox (and probably other browsers) being served 
> pages as text/html rather than application/xhtml+xml, even though it states 
> that it prefers the latter.
> On a related note, HtmlRenderKitImpl always chooses ISO-8859-1 as the 
> character encoding. When the content type is XML, the default is UTF-8.
> I've created a patch against 1.1.1 (which I'll attach) that corrects both of 
> these problems.
> I'm not sure why the code works the way it does. Surely without parsing the 
> real rendered response, you cannot know what the content type & encoding is.
