XMLHttpRequest missing correct responseType (handling) for binary responses

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      XMLHttpRequest returns an empty responseType and then (mis)encodes the response body. An example for a request that returns an audio object:

      Headers: 

      Binary rescache-control: private, max-age=86400
content-length: 782126
content-type: audio/x-wav

      This is returned as text – it seems the content is interpreted as utf-8, which then means that some bytes get corrupted so "forcing" bytearrays does not help.
