Error when using Infinity

[PaulV]

Hi;

I am getting the following error when I try and use a dojo store
linked to a dojo FilteringSelect. When I click the drop-down arrow of
the filtering select, it causes a GET to be sent to persevere, which
has the following header ...

Range: items=0-Infinity


On the console I see the following error ...

js>java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "Infinity"

Any ideas?

Paul,
This was fixed in Dojo 1.3 (which is currently in beta, and almost ready
for release), so that is will properly format such a page request in the
proper range unit format required by RFC 2616. I can also "fix" this in
Persevere (handle Infinity in the Range header, even though it is not
really allowed). Just checked in a fix for it on the server...
Thanks,
Kris

Thats great Kris; thanks for being so responsive, and I think you
absolutely have the right approach to standards: of strict adherence
when transmitting but tolerating others that don't on receiving --- it
generally leads to better coexistence.

Thanks;
Paul
