Refused to set unsafe header "Connection"

[Prutkar]

I am using Jetty 6.1.17, cometd-1.0.beta10, dojo-toolkit client - I am
testing demo chat application and all is working fine, except:

Safari under Windows prints errors into the console:
Refused to set unsafe header "Connection"

This is still alright as javascript continues to execute, but on
iphone Safari browser this error is a showstopper.
(I know I am not setting the header "Connection"in my code.)

Is there anybody who can advice on this?

I found out in org/cometd.js following code:

org.cometd.LongPollingTransport = function()
...
headers: {
Connection: 'Keep-Alive'
},
...
};


Commenting out lines that set header Connection solved problem and
removed above mentioned error. Now, I understand that with long-
polling we want to keep connection alive, so, is this "cometd bug" or
"Safari bug" or "Safari feature"?
