Rails spinoffs - Oct 2007 - Ajax.Request post in IE causes UnsupportedEncodingException

Hello All,

I found when I moved from Prototype 1.4 to 1.5, POST requests sent by IE 
are causing a  "java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException: UTF-8, text/xml"
exception in my backend java application.  The java application is 
simply reading the request body when it throws the exception.  The code 
runs fine in FireFox or if using Prototype 1.4.0.

Can anyone explain the what''s going on here or how I might address the 
issue?  I confirmed the same behavior in 1.6.0_rc1.

Thanks!

If you track down the trigger of the exception, you should see what is
supported and either force an acceptable encoding to the ajax requests
or update your java code to support UTF8.
