Thanks for the reponse. Actually browsers ignore the header as a response header and do not show it at all. (at least firefox) Technically I would expect squid to pass it but it's might have the potential for a CVE in some casese.

Seriously -- what would a user's browser do? Probably depends on browser, but browsers are notoriously accepting and most would likely ignore a problem like that and try to use defaults to decide on content and rendering. So if you want your proxy to not look like a stick-in-the-mud for standards, I'd just pass it on. If a proxy rejected every non-compliant web-page, some significant percentage of the web would be unviewable. _______________________________________________ squid-users mailing list squid-users@lists.squid-cache.org http://lists.squid-cache.org/listinfo/squid-users
