Description Alexei Mokeev 2002-05-23 11:08:19 UTC 
Open properties for some servlet, switch to Execution tab.
By default Content Language property is set to text/html
In help, in "Setting Servlet Properties" article written:
"Content Language. This property requires no argument 
in the case of a servlet."
So, remove value of this property and try to execute servlet:
Servlet not executed and Warning window: "There is no browser for 
MIME type ."
Or for example you have servlet, that generates 
images (response.setContentType("image/gif" is set.);
If this property is set to text/html, then servlet works well.
If you'll try to set Content Type property to image/gif,
then warning message "There is no browser for 
MIME type image/gif." appears and nothing more.

How I can configure browser for mime types ?

The role of this property must be clarified.

Well reproduced with FFJ4.0 RC5 under Win2K

There is no warnings or exceptions when you execute servlet with any 
value of Content-Language propety from current trunk on WinXP.

But http response content-type header have no connection to this 
servlet property.

So this property seems unusable.

You can see the same issue for JSP: 39315

Priority probably should be raised to P3 as for 39315

The property in question does not exist any more - marking as fixed.
