Hi All, We have recently run into a case where XMLHTTPRequest is being used to POST content, but the javascript author has failed to add the mandatory content-type header. We were wondering what the default content type should be. We believe that it should be the same default as the default content type for a FORM post. Oddly enough, the w3 draft spec for xmlhttprequest does not even state that you should provide a content-type when posting: http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/#dfn-send whereas XULPlanet at least states one should be provided: http://www.xulplanet.com/references/objref/XMLHttpRequest.html#method_se nd "The MIME type of the stream should be specified by setting the Content- Type header via the setRequestHeader method before calling send." neither say what the default should be.
