New submission from david reid <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: In urllib2 when using reusing a Request calling add_header doesn't work when an unredirected_header has been added.
A good example (and the one that caught me out) is content-type. When making a POST request with no content-type set the current code sets the content-type as an unredirected_header to 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' (line 1034 of urllib2.py) but in a subsequent request, setting the content type via add_header will see this ignored as unredirected_headers are appended after the headers. A possible solution is to check whether the header being added already exists in the requests undredirected_headers and remove it if it does. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 66213 nosy: zathras severity: normal status: open title: urllib2 add_header fails with existing unredirected_header type: behavior versions: Python 2.5 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2756> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
