Bug: XMLHttpRequest mishandles content-length

In the Palm Pre browser, if you are running JavaScript code that Posts an XMLHttpRequest query that returns an XML document *and* that document doesn't have an explicit content-length header, the browser assumes a content-length of zero and presents an empty document. (If there is an explicit content-length header, then the browser uses it as the length of the returned XML document and all is well.)
FWIW: In the JavaScript code that I've been using to dig into this issue, I have:
xmlDoc=xhttp.responseXML;
alert(xhttp.getAllResponseHeaders());
alert(xhttp.responseText.length);
The getAllResponseHeaders() call returns all the headers that I see going across the wire (using WireShark) *PLUS* a "content-length=0" header that isn't coming from the server (the server is not sending any content-length header). The responseText.length then, of course, reports a length of zero, regardless of the true length of the XML document being transmitted.

I actually looked at the developer forum first as a place to post this, but that forum seemed to be 100% aimed toward native WebOS app development. I really didn't see an appropriate spot to report a bug that seems to reside within the browser. (I know far too little of WebOS app development to claim any knowledge of whether the WebOS app JavaScript interpreter has the same bug as the browser JavaScript interpreter.)
So, that being said, which section of the developer forum would you suggest that I post in?
Thanks!

  • ImageLoader,no  Content-Length not loading in ie, chrome

    Im currently working with the PosterFrameElement, the url to the jpeg is like this http://mydomain.dk/image/1234/
    serialElement.addChild(new PosterFrameElement(new URLResource(url)));
    to get pass the ImageLoader canHandleResource I tryed inserting .jpg which then return true..(also override the canHandleResourceto true)
    However my problem seems to have something with the browser and  images content header, the images im trying to load has no Content-Length and is chunked..file size around 46 k (and I have no chance to change this).
    In firefox all work fine,
    BUT  when I view in chrome, ie or safari the picture is not loading. I trace LoadEvent bytes to 0
    It seems like a BUG in the Loader!! is their a workaround or suggestions on how to move on?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Peter,
    Have you tried loading the images directly in the problem browsers (Chrome, IE, Safari) and see if the loading works any better? If something loads differently based on the browser, that's unusual with Flash Player. I'd see if the browsers themselves are having trouble with the chunked files before tackling anything inside OSMF. I know that certain browsers send different HTTP statuses than others. It is possible that a chunked file is sending a status before the entire file is loaded, tricking the Loader into thinking the file is complete. Adobe notes that the following browsers don't send statuses to the Flash Player: Netscape, Mozilla, Safari, Opera, and Internet Explorer for the Macintosh. That doesn't line up exactly with your list, so that may be a red herring.
    Also, on the matter of getting around the image loader, you could use your own media factory to pick the loader and element type through a custom MediaFactoryItem. If you specify an ID other than the standard OSMF ID for MediaFactoryItems (org.osmf), it will get used before the standard MediaFactoryItem for that media element type. Check out the MediaFactory's resolveItems() method for how that works.

  • Content-length in HTTP Post request

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with a Http request. I send data in a POST to a servlet, but the KVM doesn't set the Content-Length correctly. How can I do ?
    The code :
    conn = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(m_strServer);
    conn.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);
    conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
    String requestData = "from=" + m_strOriginator + "&to=" + m_strDestinator + "&message=" + m_strMessage;
    out = conn.openDataOutputStream();
    out.write(requestData.getBytes());
    out.flush();
    in = conn.openDataInputStream();
    if (conn.getResponseCode() == 200)
         response = true;the request sended :
    POST /my_directory/test.xml HTTP/1.1
    Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
    Transfer-Encoding: chunked
    Host: my_pc
    15
    from=8&to=9&message=J
    0
    I think that the KVM doesn't put "Content-Length:" before "15".
    Perhaps it's a bug.
    St�phane

    Maby u try to force it with:
    conn.setRequestProperty ( "Content-Length" ,
                   Integer.toString (requestData.getBytes()));
    for me it does also not work...but u never know
    lemme know if it works

  • SunOne Web Server 6.1 and JSP response content-length

    Hi,
    I am looking for help for a problem in my previous post
    http://swforum.sun.com/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=58612.
    It seems to me the only significant difference of the response to the same jsp file from 6.0 and 6.1 server is the content-length header.
    6.0 response has the content-length header;
    6.1 response does not have the content-length header.
    HttpUrlConnection::getContentLength() returns the actual content length of the 6.0 response;
    HttpUrlConnection::getContentLength() returns -1 for the 6.1 response.

    Hi, elving
    This is good information. Thanks very much.
    Actually, I am not using SSL, just plain http connection with basic auth. It might be the cache-control header that causes the head ache. 6.0 response does not have the cache-control header, but 6.1 has.
    The interesting thing is that adding a servlet mapping on 6.1 solves the problem.
    I will take a further look tomorrow.
    Cheers,
    Harry
    I doubt the problem has to do with the Content-Length
    header.
    I'd guess that you're using SSL. Are you? If so,
    you're almost certainly bumping into a known bug (or,
    as Microsoft describes it, a "feature") in Internet
    Explorer. Microsoft article KB316431 at
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=316431h
    as some information on the problem. As the article
    points out, the problem occurs when Internet Explorer
    needs to invoke an external application to handle a
    file that was served over SSL with Cache-Control:
    no-cache and/or Pragma: no-cache headers.
    A work around would be force Web Server to send
    Cache-Control and Pragma headers that don't include
    the no-cache directive. For example, the following
    lines could be added to the obj.conf configuration
    file:<Object ppath="*.jnlp">
    Output fn="set-variable" set-srvhdrs="Cache-Control:
    private"
    Output fn="set-variable" set-srvhdrs="Pragma:
    private"
    </Object>Fortunately, it sounds like you've already
    found another viable work around.

  • Missing Content-Length in HTTP response

    Hi All,
    I am experimenting with developing websevices using Sun Java Application Server. I have a working webservice using BEA Weblogic and I would like to have it ported to SUN. The application works like this: A client (Tuxedo application program) sends an XML document to the webservice, in response the websevice parse this document and based on certain fields it send back another document.
    The problem is that the SUN application does not return the content-length in its response and hence the requesting client rejects the message. Can anyone help?? Below is the response from both SUN and Weblogic:
    Weblogic
    HTTP/1.1 200 OK
    Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2005 11:42:53 GMT

    As can be seen the Content-Length is missing.
    Thanks for your help.

    Is there an option in Sun Java Application Server to include Content-Length in response to a client request? If not is it possible to generate this information from the service code?
    Thanks.

  • Maximum size for an HttpRequest? Set Content-Length?

    Hi, I'm managing to get small strings sent from my applet to my servlet, but when I try anything bigger, I get problems. Oddly enough, the larger object can get sent to my applet from my servlet without any issues.
    Can anyone tell me if there is a maximum size for sending responses?
    Or, if I have to set the content-length property in my applet before I send my data, how do I get the size of my object so I can set it?
    thanks for any advice any of you might have

    Thanks for the pointers.
    BalusC, at first I was trying to write my object without sending it through a byteStream first (hence the q) :), tried it that way too and wouldn't work.
    I finally figured out that it wasn't the code that was the problem, but it was an upload issue (server specific). Have changed the code to sending one line of data at a time since I was converting my object to an output file in the servlet anyway. Not the best solution but it works :)
    Thanks again

  • Content-Length Header being stripped out of Gatewayed pages

    I am working to integrate the GPL'ed Moodle e-learning web application with Plumtree.  However, I'm hitting a snag.  For certain POST events, Moodle expects to receive a content-length header.
    When I use the application outside the portal, it works fine, and the Content-Length header is sent.  However, when I have the application gatewayed through the portal, the Content-Length header seems to get stripped out of the HTTP request and I get HTTP error 411 (Content Length Required).
    Is there a way I can convince the portal to not strip out the Content Length HTTP header?

    I'm working with .NET portal.
    For the particular file that caused the error as reported in the tcptrace log, I opened IIS manager, found the virtual directory, right clicked to open the properties dialog and checked directory security.
    Select edit anonymous access to check the account used for anonymous access, supply the user account needed and allow IIS to manage password. If in doubt check the settings on pages containing http post that are functioning properly.
    Check Integrated Widows Authentication
    I found this virutal directory had no user in the anonymous account, not sure how this happened. This resulted in pages that contained post/postbacks giving the "length required" error when I hit a button to perform the post/postback. Pages that did not contain Posts/Postback work correctly.

  • How to solve "Bad Content-Length value" Error that show in ADF Mobile

    I was develop application that using web service from mine original ADF project and I can't fetch via AMX Page as pop-up error "Bad Content-Length value" How to solve this problem ?
    My Web-service configuration
    - "Find" is only basic operation that in view instance
    - None of View criteria

  • Content-length and chunked-encoding

  • Content-Length header not changed after url-rewrite... yields cut page.

    We use iPlanet6 ,service pack 4. The pages that return from the servlets are
    changed by the Application Server. The Application Server adds
    GXHC_GX_jst=901a10a6662d6164& to the all the URLs (which increase the
    page's size). The problem is that Application Server does not change the
    Content-Length header in the servlet response. This yields cut pages in the
    browser (IExplorer5).
    If we don't add the Content-Length header it works fine. (I.e., The pages
    are not cut.) Our problem is that we work with mobile devices that must have
    the Content-Length header to work properly.
    Q: Do you know if there is a patch that fix the problem?
    Q: Is it possible to configure the Application Server to prevent this
    url-rewrite?
    Regards,
              Aviram

    Hi guys,
    I would like to do url rewriting on our CF app but am worried I'll break something if I try and do it myself - is there anyone who would be interested in a bit of consultancy to help us achieve this?

    my browser was redirected to http://www.allchichesterjobs.com/part-time-jobs ok - but then I got a 404 error
    I'm wondering if I can pay someone to remote view my screen while we talk on skype and tell me what to do?
    Hope it's ok to post this sort of request on here
    Thanks very much indeed.

  • HTTP PUT Request for File Uploads is returning a response header with content-length = 0

    After upgrading from CF9 to Coldfusion 10, I'm running into an odd issue, with `cURL` calls to a webservice that used to work.
    We are using an HTTP PUT Request with multipart="no" so that the request header content is the file itself, now the data is being sent properly in the content but it has a ~8k limit. This is fine for smaller files but some files are 60kb etc.
    Errors are odd too, near the 8KB limit we get a bad gateway error 502, and above that the webpage errors with a connection reset.
    It works fine with multipart="yes", but in a PUT request the file's data isn't even sent since it's looking for `httpparam formField` , the content-length from the target page's Headers show a content-length of 0 which causes `cURL` to fail with an error (56): http://curl.haxx.se/docs/manpage.html
    Here's example code to reproduce:
    <cfset sFilename = "C:\999\test4.txt">
    <cffile action="readBinary" file="#sFilename#" variable="fileRead">
    <cfset oFileInfo = GetFileInfo("#sFilename#")>
    <cfhttp           url="localhost/Clarence/diff_elt_test_output.cfm"
                                  method="PUT"
                                  username="******"
                                  password="******"
                                  multipart="yes"
                                  result="oHttp">
              <cfhttpparam type="header" name="Content-Type" value="text/plain" />
              <cfhttpparam type="header" name="Content-Length" value="#oFileInfo.Size#" />
              <cfhttpparam type="body" value="#fileRead#"/>

    Dumping the response via GetHttpRequestData() shows that the header's content-length = 0 and content is blank.
    Whereas POST requests work fine, cURL has a -F form option which is our fallback but a solution to this would be great.
    Here's what I've tried:
    1. Changing CF post request limit sizes (64MB+)
    2. Changing IIS config web/webserver http runtime and security.request filtering request limits to much higher values
    3. AJP Connector between IIS and Tomcat has a default 8KB header limit, I changed that to 64k on both sides, still nothing
    Also am I missing something fundamental here? I thought at the network layer a packet is split up and rejoined, so large content in a http request body should work, what's wrong with Coldfusion 10?

    I am familiar with java.net package and know how to
    Read and Write Streams.
    However, what I do not know is what string
    represntation of PUT or POST resquests is?It's HttpURLConnection.setRequestMethod("PUT") or ("POST").
    Also you have to setDoOutput(true).
    Then you set the content type, possibly encode the input, set the content length, and write the file data to the stream.
    Using a Jakarta package may be easier, however.
