Multipart/form-data encoding

[Jørn Wildt]

I am debugging a client-side HTTP API that POSTs multipart/form-data
and want to know if OpenRasta supports charset specification in the
form elements? Like this:


--af52da52-3cdb-475f-95e3-9e0e835eea22
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Age"
Context-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

If I send Danish letters using iso-8859-1 encoding of the value then I
get nonsens in my server-side handler.

Thanks, Jørn

Good question. There's a whole bunch of tests around that, so provided the .net culture matches the langid (here 8859-1) then it should work fine. The only thing we don't do by the spec is when there's nothing as browsers implemented something different and lie about their charset :)

Duh! Got it ... it was right there in front of everybody's eyes:

--af52da52-3cdb-475f-95e3-9e0e835eea22
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="Age"
Context-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

Should have been "Content-Type" - not "Context-Type" ;-)

Now it works as expected.
