Author #37371 [NEW]: WWW-Authenticate requires commas
cyberscribe@php.net

2006-05-09, 6:58 pm

From: cyberscribe@php.net
Operating system: n/a
PHP version: Irrelevant
PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: WWW-Authenticate requires commas

Description:
------------
In the Digest example on

http://php.net/features.http-auth

the auth, qop, nonce, and opaque values for the WWW-Authenticate header
are not separated by commas.

This works fine for browsers like Firefox, but does not work when
authenticating with Internet Explorer or Opera. So, for maximum
compatability, be sure to separate the key/value pair elements of the
WWW-Authenticate header with commas.

I'm not sure what the RFCs say; I just know what works.

And I think it's strange that the comment I posted with the same
information was deleted -- since it could save someone like me in a
similar situation a lot of pain and frustration until someone on the Doc
team gets around to changing this...
