#40 Accept header not set

[Leigh L. Klotz, Jr.]

In submission replace='instance' the accept header is not set except in certain conditions:

            if \(method == "get" || method == "delete"\) \{
                if \(media == XFSubmission.SOAP\_\) \{
                    req.setRequestHeader\("Accept", mt\);
                \}

                req.send\(null\);
            \} else \{
                req.setRequestHeader\("Content-Type", mt\);

                if \(media == XFSubmission.SOAP\_\) \{
                    req.setRequestHeader\("SOAPAction", this.soapAction\);
                \}
                req.send\(Core.saveXML\(node\)\);
            \}

So it looks like the submission/mediatype is used to set the accept header in SOAP GET and DELETE requests, defaulting to application/xml, but it's not set at all in POST or PUT.

I propose that at least if subm.replace=="instance" that GET, PUT, and POST have Accept default to application/xml. It can be overridden using the XForms 1.1 headers element.

Simple patch to make non-soap case use accept: application/xml,text/xml
