Re: [hunchentoot-devel] Why can't the python script get the post parameters from hunchentoot-cgi?

Quoth z_axis z_axis@163.com:

#'create-prefix-dispatcher [...] does not prepare both Content-Type and Content-Length [headers].

I don't use #'create-prefix-dispatcher (so I can't quickly test your assertion directly) but I can confirm that #'create-regex-dispatcher (which I use all the time) prepares a Content-Type header but doesn't prepare a Content-Length header.

Assuming #'create-prefix-dispatcher behaves in the same way, then your assertion is correct.

Hans, my understanding of the nuts and bolts of HTTP is pretty limited. What are the benefits of sending a Content-Length header? Is this something Hunchentoot should perhaps do?
