Java's setRequestProperty supported, with a caveat
Thursday, 20. April 2006, 08:46:43
Just a morsel of technical documentation..
Opera's Java implementation will now support HTTPUrlConnection.setRequestProperty but for security reasons (to prevent so called "request smuggling attacks") it will not permit sending several headers. These headers include "Host", "Content-length" and "Transfer-Encoding".
This is the same security policy we apply to the XMLHttpRequest object and I believe the Flash plugin does the same thing for its ActionScript implementation.
