I cannot find any reference to 'defaultchartype' in my config file. However, the Apache config starts out with a number of AddType declarations that look promising...
AddType text/plain .java AddType text/xml .xml AddType text/x-hdml .hdml AddType text/vnd.wap.wml .wml AddType image/gif .gif AddType text/html .htm AddType text/html .html AddType text/x-component .htc Maybe I need to add... AddType application/json .js Let me know what you think. I'm going to research it a little more before I make changes the Web server's configuration.
