PM90517: SUPPORT SETTING HTTP RESPONSE CONTENT TYPE FOR RENDERING COMPONE NT VIA CONNECT SERVLET

 

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When render the component by WCM connect servlet directly, WCM
    by default sets the return content type to "text/html". This
    prevent the browser from identifying the right format if the
    content is XML like a RSS feed or others.
    The improvement for this is to add a new parameter
    in the request called "subtype" which will be used as the sub
    type of the parameter "content-type" in response HTTP header.
    For example, if the request has "subtype=xml", the return
    value of content type will be "text/xml".
    
    
    It's actually an APAR for WCM 6.0.

  • New parameter "subtype" is supported, so user can leverage that
    to specify the sub-type
