Re: [PHP] Content-Type header required for POST?

Can you explain what you're talking about? I was talking about the request, not about the response. As was I. That's why I used the word request. :-) I'm sorry, I misunderstood 'thas has content'. You'll have a very tough time getting an answer if you can't explain your question. That's the only helpful hint I can provide. The reason I'm asking is that I've got a small application that does a POST request without that header and it used to work fine and not it doesn't. So I was wondering in which version PHP changed this behaviour.
