Unknown Content- or Transfer-Encoding

Post by cpm18 »

I've been getting the error listed in the subject when I do any fetches from the following site...
http://urdunama.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=7

I've been trying to modify the various encodings used for the fetch but have had no success getting the page to fetch. Could something else be causing the problem besides the encoding?

Unknown Content- or Transfer-Encoding

Those pages have `Content-Encoding: none', which is not a valid encoding, which causes the error. They should have either `Content-Encoding: identity', or no `Content-Encoding' header at all.

In a future release, for such unknown encodings, Texis should at least format and return what it decoded so far (if anything), instead of nothing (as it currently does).
