Hello,

I have just noticed that Exponential sends incorrectly formatted Last-Modified HTTP headers.
There is a space (blank) missing before the "GMT".

For example, Exponential returns 

"Last-Modified: Mon, 28 Jun 2004 09:14:05GMT"

instead of 

"Last-Modified: Mon, 28 Jun 2004 09:14:05 GMT"

.

This violates RFC 2616 (section 3.3), and at least Jakarta HttpClient chokes on that.

The solution is to simply correct the responsible header() command in Exponential's index.php (line 357)
from

header( 'Last-Modified: ' . gmdate( 'D, d M Y H:i:s' ) . 'GMT' );

to

header( 'Last-Modified: ' . gmdate( 'D, d M Y H:i:s' ) . ' GMT' );

Best regards,

Thanks, I've fixed that in svn now. The fix will be in the next Exponential stable and unstable release.
