Hi
In our case it can be pretty big, we do need the performance. So the actual response format is truly binary (SWF) and not XML at all? in that case the content-type is correct I guess. or is it text wtih just the encoding set to SWF? in that case I guess we could figure a workaround? Thank you!

The implementation for DHTML uses a JSON encoding. The fix for this would need to be to switch to using the JSON encoding with the swf runtime. We do have a JSON parser for SWF7/8, it would be somewhat slower than the direct-to-swf transport being used now, but that might be acceptable if the amount of data you are sending in each request is not very large.

Looking at the logs one sees that the REQUESTS produced by our client for XML-RPC are of type "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" (which makes sense - it is the correct content-type for a POST request). However the RESPONSEs are of type "application/x-shockwave-flash" which is strange. We would expect the reponse type to be text/xml or something like that. This is creating a real-world problem for us on various consumers e.g. JMeter - which expect the text/xml to function correctly. Do you have any experience with this issue? Suggestions or workarounds? Detailed info from the logs is below. Thanks Gilad P.S. For example: something like the following response headers ---------------- HTTP/1.1 200 OK Expires: Fri, 05 Oct 2001 00:00:00 GMT Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2008 11:51:13 GMT Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 Cache-Control: no-store Content-Type: application/x-shockwave-flash Content-Length: 437 Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1 ---------------- is returned from the following request: ---------------- POST http://localhost/lps/workspace/VC/client/welcomei.lzx?__lzbc__=1205615513625 POST data: fpv=9%2E115&lzr=swf8&proxied=true&lzpostbody=%3C%3Fxml+version%3D%221%2E0%22%3F%3E%0A%3CmethodCall%3E%0A%3CmethodName%3EClientInfo%2EgetGhostInitInfo%3C%2FmethodName%3E%0A%3Cparams%3E%0A%3Cparam%3E%0A%3Cvalue%3E%3Cstring%3E%3C%2Fstring%3E%3C%2Fvalue%3E%0A%3C%2Fparam%3E%0A%3C%2Fparams%3E%0A%3C%2FmethodCall%3E&headers=Content%2DType%3A+text%2Fxml&url=xmlrpc%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%2Fvcweb%2FGhostXmlrpc&reqtype=POST&lzt=data&ccache=false&cache=false&sendheaders=false Cookie Data: JSESSIONID=2FEEB2B9C6B91302795CD62AD3D274A6 Request Headers: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) Host: localhost Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Accept-Language: he-IL Pragma: no-cache Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded UA-CPU: x86 Accept: */* Content-Length: 462 Connection: keep-alive Referer: http://localhost/lps/workspace/VC/client/welcomei.lzx?lzt=swf&lzr=swf8 x-flash-version: 9,0,115,0 Gilad Parann-Nissany -- Henry Minsky Software Architect [EMAIL PROTECTED]
