8.3.3.2 Character Set Query Parameter

8.3.3.2 Character Set Query Parameter (Current)
Prev	8.3.3 Content Negotiation Query Parameters	Next

The Character Set Query Parameter has the following syntax:

character-set = "charset" "=" 1#(charset [weight])

The Character Set Query Parameter value is a comma-separated list of one or more character set identifiers. It is like the Accept-Charset header field, except that it shall not have wildcards. See Section 8.8.

Note

Character set identifiers present in the character set Query Parameter typically have a corresponding character set identifier in the Accept-Charset header field, either explicitly or implicitly through wildcards.

If this parameter has a value that is not supported, that value shall be ignored.
