--------------------------------------

             Summary: Make MediaRange parser linient to accept invalid Accept header generated by Oracle JDK HttpUrlConnection
                 Key: SLING-3175
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-3175
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Servlets
    Affects Versions: Servlets Post 2.3.2
            Reporter: Chetan Mehrotra
            Priority: Minor


While making a call to Sling using Java URLConnection we get following exception [1]. The root cause is due to parsing of invalid {{Accept}} header being sent as part of request

{noformat}
Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, *; q=.2, */*; q=.2
{noformat}

The problem here is that this header is added by JDK itself [0] and at times its not possible to change the request property of URLConnection created by third party library. Would be helpful to make Sling MediaRange parser more linient
