From 75c00f0054c08c7b49515c849260afbb6913f525 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brion Vibber Date: Mon, 16 Nov 2009 17:25:38 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Bug 1655/bug 1905: fix for Internet Explorer receiving FOAF output when clicking user links. User links using the ID number (such as created for @-replies) have been failing on Internet Explorer, since IE doesn't bother to actually say it supports text/html... We usually get something like this from IE, up through at least IE 8: Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, */* The */* ended up matching application/rdf+xml instead of text/html, so only other browsers which are more explicit would actually get sent on to the user profile/notice stream; IE visitors were directed on to the FOAF download. :( Swapping the order of items in the server-side of the negotiation list fixes this; clients actually asking for FOAF at a higher priority than HTML will still get it, but the wildcard */* now matches text/html which is usually what we want. Content negotiation for the user links was added August 2008 in commit 48fcfb8b0daeb272cb9d116af617daf15930d909. --- actions/userbyid.php | 7 +++++-- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/actions/userbyid.php b/actions/userbyid.php index 802bcb0815..86a61f20b3 100644 --- a/actions/userbyid.php +++ b/actions/userbyid.php @@ -74,8 +74,11 @@ class UserbyidAction extends Action $this->clientError(_('No such user.')); } - // support redirecting to FOAF rdf/xml if the agent prefers it - $page_prefs = 'application/rdf+xml,text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.3,text/xml;q=0.2'; + // Support redirecting to FOAF rdf/xml if the agent prefers it... + // Internet Explorer doesn't specify "text/html" and does list "*/*" + // at least through version 8.
