headerItemGetParameterValues

SYNOPSIS

varstrlst headerItemGetParameterValues(varchar headerItem
                                      [, varchar paramName])

Parameters:

  • headerItem - A varchar raw header item

  • paramName - An optional varchar parameter name

Returns:

  • The varstrlst decoded list of parameter values


DESCRIPTION
The headerItemGetParameterValues function returns a list of parameter value(s) for the parameter named paramName in headerItem, which is a single raw (original encoded) header item (i.e. one item in a comma-separated values list, if header is CSV). The returned values are RFC 2047 encoded-word decoded.

If paramName is not given or is empty, the first/main value of the header is returned (i.e. the "empty/unnamed" parameter; see example).

Note that a shortcut function exists for mimeEntity objects, to obtain the header and parse it for parameters in one call; see mimeEntityGetHeaderParameterValues (here).


EXAMPLE

<$conType = 'text/html; charset="ISO-8859-1"; name="foo.html"'>
  <$ret = (headerItemGetParameterValues($conType))>
  Content type: $ret
  <$ret = (headerItemGetParameterValues($conType, "charset" ))>
  Charset: $ret

The output would be:

Content type: text/html
Charset: ISO-8859-1


CAVEATS
If the header being decoded is a potentially multi-item CSV list (e.g. "To" addresses), it should be split via headerGetItems (here) first.
