I could never reproduce this problem, it would help if you could try the stable snapshot from snaps.php.net/win32 to see if it works or not. AFAIK this bug is not a bug actually... but just an error on the user side.

We have at least one application that stops working in 4.2.x because the header() function doesn´t work in the same way it used to work in 4.1.x. Just upgrading to 4.2.x makes it stop working. I have not changed anything in the application code. I did a workaround for an application that consisted in using the function headers_sent() to the test if the headers were already sent to the user. When they were, the application sent the headers through META HTTP-EQUIVs. It made it work partially. We still need to be able to set the Content-type of the response. I think that, if the application uses META HTTP-EQUIV to set the Content-type it will corrupt the files it sents to the user.

Anyway, I think that patch you posted is not that related at all, and thus I won't merge it. (It's more adding of a feature).

Ok. The description of patch mentioned it solved some problems with headers we that were experiencing. It seems a new feature that solved a old problem to me. I will set a debug environment and try to create a case that is fully reproducible. Regards, Bauer
