Description peavo 2013-03-08 04:27:59 PST
Curl adds the header 'Expect: 100-Continue' when sending a POST request.
When we receive the header 'HTTP/1.1 100 Continue' we should not call
ResourceHandleClient::didReceiveResponse(), as the request might be
cancelled because the MIME type is empty in this case.

A good way to reproduce this, is to create a new bug at https://bugs.webkit.org/.
When clicking the commit button after filling in the various fields, the POST request sent is always failing for me.

Modified the patch slightly, inspired by the blackberry port.
The blackberry port also ignores http code 100 (and other info codes),
see the method NetworkJob::handleNotifyStatusReceived() in
WebCore\platform\network\blackberry\NetworkJob.cpp.
The blackberry port also doesn't classify http code 304 (Not modified)
as a redirect. I did the same thing for Curl, now the 304 code is reported
as a response (ResourceHandleClient::didReceiveResponse() is called).
