Since it appears that my attachment was stripped from the email, I created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-665 and attached the patch there. Thanks, Dave

I couldn't find any previous discussion or bug reports about this exact issue, so I decided to post the question here. Currently, the "Content-Type" response header is not being set for JSON responses from, for example, DataServiceServlet and JsonRpcServlet. As such, the JSON data returned is causing errors to appear in the FireFox "Error Console" (syntax error/not well-formed). These errors do not appear to have any adverse effects on the browser behavior (?) but they do make gadget development more difficult as these spurious errors must be ignored. Is there a reason why DataServiceServlet and JsonRpcServlet don't set the response content type, similar to RpcServlet? servletResponse.setContentType("application/json; charset=iso-8859-1"); I've attached a patch that I tried to this end, and it resolved the FF errors for me, but a more experienced Shindig developer may see issues with my patch or other areas that it should apply to. Thanks! Dave
