Charset in Content Type: Tomcat 4 versus Tomcat 5

[Neeraj Vora <ne...@hotmail.com>]

Hello World,

I migrated from Tomcat 4.0.2 to Tomcat 5.5.7 which is quite nice for me but 
a not so good thing happened as a side-effect due to a MS bug. A particular 
response within my application had the following content-type header in 
Tomcat 4.0.2

Content Type: application/x-java-jnlp-file

Now with Tomcat 5.5.7, following is the header.

Content Type: application/x-java-jnlp-file;charset=iso-8859-1

MS IE has an unfortunate bug whereby it cannot associate this with Java Web 
Start. This has been documented as KB 871248. I tried 
response.setCharacterEncoding(null) but it does not take out the trailing 
charset. Is it possible somehow to still have Tomcat 5.5.7 return the header 
that Tomcat 4.0.2 used to?

TIA.

AFAIK, real player has (or had) a similar problem, and can also not be
served by Tomcat.
