The difference I guess is that rather than "referer" having only one setup (the way it's specced and the way it's implemented are identical), in this case there are two competing methods: The way browsers do it, and the way every other language library does it (which is, incidentally, the way the spec says it should be done).
- georgemcbay 15y agoYeah my analogy certainly isn't a perfect one and that is a good point, but for node.js I'd still argue that being compatible with JavaScript running on browsers (even if that means being 'wrong') is much more important than being compatible with other languages.
