Hi there,

I'm concerned that the server response headers are wrong when using the Flash/XML subscribe function (which I would like to implement via javascript, not flash):

According to the docs, you should get an XML response when you supply a url such as this:

http://yoursite com/cgi-bin/dada/mail cgi?f=subscribe_flash_xml&l=listshortname&e=someone@address com

However, with my own tests (all be it in my browser), I am prompted to download 'mail cgi' each time, viewing the file reveals the XML Looking at the response headers I see this:

Tested using: http://www askapache com/online-tools/http-headers-tool/ URI: http://dadamailproject com/cgi-bin/dada/mail cgi?e=you%40yours com&f=subscribe_flash_xml&l=skazat_design_newsletter

HTTP/1 1 200 OK Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2008 11:32:36 GMT Server: Apache/1 3 41 (Unix) mod_auth_passthrough/1 8 mod_log_bytes/1 2 mod_bwlimited/1 4 FrontPage/5 0 2 2635 mod_ssl/2 8 31 OpenSSL/0 9 8g Connection: close Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

Surely Content-Type should be text/xml ?
