I'm trying to build a simple learning experiment where I can write HTML and Javascript into documents, and retrieve them with a GET request. However, I don't know how to specify text/html or application/x-javascript as the Content-Type headers in the response to a document request.
Is the recommended practice to simply store the html or js text as attachments, or is it possible somehow to use a "show" function to send them back with specific content type headers? I read some of Chris Anderson's posts, the Safari Rough Cuts book, and looked a bit at the CouchApp code, but it might be too much to grasp all at once for me. -Sam On Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 12:33 PM, Paul Davis <[email protected]> wrote: > Sam, > > We're consistently inconsistent in that we only sometimes check for > the content-type when posting JSON documents.
