The legacy that I inherited from the "crazy" perl guy always has these lines
of codes

      print "Status: 302 Moved Temporarily\n";
      print "Location: http://www.whatever.com\n\n";

I made a quick fix to my CGIServlet

				...
                        } else if (line.indexOf(":") >= 0) {
                        	// PQ: quick fix for 302 redirect
                        	if (line.substring(0,
line.indexOf(":")).trim().compareToIgnoreCase("STATUS")==0 &&
line.indexOf("302")>0) {
                        		response.setStatus(302);
                            } else {
                            response.addHeader
                                (line.substring(0,
line.indexOf(":")).trim(),
                                line.substring(line.indexOf(":") +
1).trim());
                            }
                        } else {
				...

I am not sure if the above code applies to any one else so I am reluctant to
patch Tomcat.

Just because something isn't done, it doesn't necessarily mean it is
difficult. A number of 'extra' servlets provided with Tomcat (CGI, webDAV,
etc) are not 100% complete. It all comes down to who wants/needs to do the
development for the bits that are missing.

That sounds like parsing the header to me. Given "NPN"="Non-parsed headers"
that doesn't feel right. I had always assumed that NPN support would involve
passing the output from the script directly to the client but haven't really
given it any great amount of thought.

As ever, patches are always welome ;)
