Benoit Chesneau commented on COUCHDB-472:
-----------------------------------------

Some browser clients are bugged and sedn *.*, so not sure if we should detect text/html to send html page or not. Nothing against though.

> This change modify behaviour of Welcome handler by allowing admin to customize the welcome page. If content is "application/json" it will send current json object, if not, it will send an html page or redirect to another path.  
> This patch change the confugration string to a tupple {WelcomeMsg, WelcomePage}. WelcomePage could be a string for DocumentRoot where it will find welcome.html page or a tupple {redirect, Url}
> Ex if in config you have:
> / = {couch_httpd_misc_handlers, handle_welcome_req, {<<"Welcome">>, "/usr/local/share/couchdb/www"}}
> If Accept content is application/json Couchdb will send :
> "couchdb":"Welcome","version":"0.10.0a"}
> If other it will send welcome.html.
> if you replace "/usr/local/share/couchdb/www" by {redirect, <<"/_utils">>} user will be redirected on futon.
