/**
 * Internet Explorer derives a cache filename from a URL, and then in certain
 * circumstances, uses the extension of the resulting file to determine the
 * content type of the data, ignoring the Content-Type header.
 *
 * This can be a problem, especially when non-HTML content is sent by MediaWiki,
 * and Internet Explorer interprets it as HTML, exposing an XSS vulnerability.
 *
 * Usually the script filename (e.g. api.php) is present in the URL, and this
 * makes Internet Explorer think the extension is a harmless script extension.
 * But Internet Explorer 6 and earlier allows the script extension to be
 * obscured by encoding the dot as "%2E".
 *
 * This class contains functions which help in detecting and dealing with this
 * situation.
 *
 * Checking the URL for a bad extension is somewhat complicated due to the fact
 * that CGI doesn't provide a standard method to determine the URL. Instead it
 * is necessary to pass a subset of $_SERVER variables, which we then attempt
 * to use to guess parts of the URL.
