Hello neal,
I've notice that in a filter I have that the content length is
sometimes zero. This never happens the first time a browser requests
a particular page but will happen each time after that if the user
hits "reload". The browser just seems to reload from its own cache.
The browser sends the request and the server must be saying that the
content hasn't changed or something so it sends back a response with
a length of zero. If I do a shift+reload, the the response is as I
would expect it.
The reason why I brought that up is the same thing may be happening
for you. Maybe when the server determines that the content hasn't
changed it sends back a zero length response and, since the response
contains no content to render, the content-type isn't set?
