RE: Need an alternative to cocoon.redirectTo()

[Aron Shamash]

Hi Simone   Yes I have tried : cocoon.response.addHeader("headername", "headervalue"); and I am successfully getting 302 headers to be over 512 bytes now. Thanks very much for you suggestion. Just need to see if it sorts out the client problem or whether their proxy will strip it out. thanks Aron From: Simone Gianni [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 February 2006 12:57 To: users@cocoon.apache.org Subject: Re: Need an alternative to cocoon.redirectTo() Hi Aron, I didn't know of this bug, wow! You can try to meet the 512 bytes adding headers to the response directly from the cocoon flow, i javaflow this is accomplished this way : ObjectModelHelper.getResponse(getObjectModel()).addHeader("X-IEBug","Need to write at least 512 bytes here to avoid a well known IE SP2 bug, so please ignore this header unless you are a Microsoft Developer"); You should try with a tcp sniffer or an http sniffer (the well known tcpmon included in axis is a good option) to check that this header is not removed by the client proxy. Another option could be not to use the 302 message, but a redirect page. You can write a JX that outputs an HTML page with an http-equiv meta or with a _javascript_ that performs a redirect, but IMMO is a bit too much to circumvent a IE bug that will probably get hot-fixed. Hope this helps, Simone Aron Shamash wrote: Hi   I have a situation whereby I may need to change all uses of cocoon.redirectTo() in my flowscript to something which does not throw a 302 message.   We have various instances of redirectTo() in the flow including the need to pass values on the querystring eg: cocoon.redirectTo("2.3.html?view=true"); The background : The client is behind a Proxy server and there is a known bug in IE with SP2 in an SSL environment whereby for any error messages under 512 bytes, IE displays it's own "this page cannot be displayed" error page. This is happening for all 302 messages not just those generated by cocoon.redirectTo(). We have tried apending extra bytes to 302 message using the mod_headers  Module using follow             ErrorHeader append header value                but this seems to be getting ignored.  Running Cocoon 2.1.6 Apache 1.3.32   What I am having problems with is an alternative solution to using redirectTo(). Does anyone have any idea? If anyone knows of a solution to this it would be greatly appreciated. cheers Aron Aron Shamash Interface Developer Phone 020 7907 4545 DNA An Avenue A | Razorfish Company www.dna.co.uk   -- Simone Gianni
