I'm writing a servlet that will filter requests based on content type. I want it to process serialised java objects from a client that I am also writing, and want to use the correct content type rather than inventing one. I've seen references to the following types (in mailing lists, etc), but am unsure as to which is correct: application/java java/object application/x-www-form-urlencoded I've also looked at the registry of MIME types at: http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/media-types but there's no reference to java objects. RFCs say to avoid using the "x-" types, as these are unregistered and thwart interoperability. Is there a [defacto] standard, or a recommendation? TIA, Jason. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
