[TinyOWS-users] Charset info in response headers

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

I heard that there are servers adding character encoding into response
headers, like this:

Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
Content-Type: text/xml;charset=UTF-8
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Date: Wed, 18 May 2011 13:22:54 GMT

I checked that TinyOWS does not include charset, nor Geoserver 2.1, nor
deegree server at http://demo.deegree.org/deegree-wfs/services
I told the developer that it seems to be an unreliable place to search
for character encoding information. You may consider if it would be good
or not to add charset into headers anyway.
