Re: XML response is getting scrambled

[Henrik Rützou <hr@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Nathan,

I get all garbage with an EBCDIC body and header Content-type: text/html or
text/plain; charset=utf-8 ...

clearsrvpgm();
setContent('text/plain; charset=utf-8');

 echo('Hello world');
 echoToClient();

Result in the browser:

 ȅ���@�����
%

If i remove the charset=utf-8 all works fine
