More concretely, this means that combined with the rules coming from HTTP a SYNTAX_ERR exception would be raised for the value argument if one of the characters has a code point larger than U+00FF, if the code point is U+007F, or if the code point is smaller than U+0020 but is not U+0009. If this is all ok the lower bytes are collected as the new header value. Does this sound acceptable to implementors? -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
