GET requests should not allow to specify Content-Type #16

Closed lfryc closed 9 years ago

lfryc commented 9 years ago

Since GET requests does not have body, they should not specify content-type. The UI may be misleading with content-type present for GET requests.

Any HTTP/1.1 message containing an entity-body SHOULD include a Content-Type header field defining the media type of that body. If and only if the media type is not given by a Content-Type field, the recipient MAY attempt to guess the media type via inspection of its content and/or the name extension(s) of the URI used to identify the resource. If the media type remains unknown, the recipient SHOULD treat it as type "application/octet-stream".
