Description

Using the format option in a POST body should override the setting in the configuration file. In this case, the configuration is for XML and the POST request is format=text. There result is the return data is text, which is correct, but the return HTTP header has application/xml, which is incorrect and should be text/plain. Reported by Staphane Zuzlewski 6-Jun-2014.
