http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23294 Handle IE 6.0 GET user-agent: contype as HEAD ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-09-20 22:39 ------- I'm actually *not* requesting a mod in tomcat to accomodate IE. In fact, I'd argue against suppressing IOExceptions. The frequent broken pipes alerted me (in this case) to an inefficient, non-standard legacy behaviour (the contype multiple GET). I would in fact suggest that the suppression of broken pipe exceptions be configurable by the web app developer. It certainly shouldn't be a hard-coded default. Other aspects of the test (like the detection of detail messages -- what about localization?) also weigh-in against a hard-coded option. I'm afraid it leaves me, the webapp developer, to handle the remapping onto HEAD requests, but that's not so onerous. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
