Subject: P3P header missing commas between header-fields
According to the P3P spec at: http://www.w3.org/TR/P3P/#syntax_ext The P3P header-fields need to be comma separated: 2.2.2 HTTP Headers Any document retrieved by HTTP MAY point to a policy reference file through the use of a new response header, the P3P header ([P3P-HEADER]). If a site is using P3P headers, it SHOULD include this on responses for all appropriate request methods, including HEAD and OPTIONS requests. The P3P header gives one or more comma-separated directives. The syntax follows: [1] p3p-header = `P3P: ` p3p-header-field *(`,` p3p-header-field) Here's a patch to CGI.pm v2.91 which fixes the problem: Index: CGI.pm =================================================================== RCS file: /home/cvs/wssource/cgi-bin/lib/CGI.pm,v retrieving revision 2.1 retrieving revision 2.2 diff -c -r2.1 -r2.2 *** CGI.pm 25 Apr 2003 15:46:45 -0000 2.1 --- CGI.pm 25 Apr 2003 15:47:52 -0000 2.2 *************** *** 1277,1283 **** push(@header,"Window-Target: $target") if $target; if ($p3p) { $p3p = join ' ',@$p3p if ref($p3p) eq 'ARRAY'; ! push(@header,qq(P3P: policyref="/w3c/p3p.xml" CP="$p3p")); } # push all the cookies -- there may be several if ($cookie) { --- 1277,1283 ---- push(@header,"Window-Target: $target") if $target; if ($p3p) { $p3p = join ' ',@$p3p if ref($p3p) eq 'ARRAY'; ! push(@header,qq(P3P: policyref="/w3c/p3p.xml", CP="$p3p")); } # push all the cookies -- there may be several if ($cookie) {
Fixed. Will appear in 2.92.
