#16173 [Com]: https & headers (Content-type) not working

ID: 16173 Comment by: rq@erasethis.uosis.mif.vu.lt.removeme Reported By: phpbug@aelea.com Status: Bogus Bug Type: IIS related Operating System: win2k SP2 PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: Well, seems like the workaround from the user end is just choosing an appropriate encoding when viewing a webpage. I was trying to see a squirrelmail login page from my home box thru https and it did not display. When i chose "view source", i can see everything in notepad. Then i found that under View > Encoding the selected option is Estonian(ISO) which is marked gray (as unavailable). When I changed the encoding to any else (even if it wasn't right for that page), i could see that page. in my case, the server is FreeBSD + apache-ssl + php, and the client is my home box running Win98+IE6.0 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-11-13 06:54:18] rupert.schlick@gmx.net the relevant article is: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;316431 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-16 03:01:21] sesser@php.net This is an Internet Explorer Bug. Search the Microsoft Knowledgebase. It has something to do with the caching headers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-08-15 18:08:50] caetin@u.washington.edu this isn't just an issue in https and windows, its also http, and also on linux. If you have session_start in there and just put out a content-type and content-disposition, it will barf on you if you try to choose "open" instead of "save" .. "save" works fine. If you take out the session-start() it works great. If you use the headers trick noted two posts up, it also works great. Tested under ie4/5/5.5/6 ns4.78/4.79/6 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-07-10 15:14:16] jeffcool@hotmail.com Apache 1.3.26 and PHP 4.2.1 I also came across this issue, and pgarre@ijcreditor.es headers (minus the last one) FIX the problem. However in trying to tack down the issue I found that taking out the session check on the page also fixed the problem? It seems odd that using sessions would change the behavior of IE. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-06-26 07:28:08] pgarre@ijcreditor.es The "magic" headers that andrzejw@lomac.net do work, but note: header("Pragma: "); header("Cache-Control: "); header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1 header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false); header("Pragma: no-cache"); // HTTP/1.0 Does not work because of the last header !! It works when I comment it out !! Pedro. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
