Re: Read POST CGI data

I'll try to work with the caller and see what we can come up with about the incoming content-type.


Thanks everyone for the help!

That's about the best you can do.

What I do is check for text/ and then I know it's converted.  adding the application/x-www-.... also is a good addition.

But most of my apps have dealt with JSON so I'm just  being careful when someone sends text/json (which is invalid but used anyhow) vs application/json.

What I would ask is, why are you getting multipart/form-data.  That's normally used for file uploads.  If you have the option to tell them "that's an invalid content-type" maybe do that.  :)
