Hey gabiudrea,

 

What browser are you using? Selecting the "View content type" sets the Content-Type header in the response. The browser should display the content in the type specified by the Content-Type header.

 

I did the following quick test in chrome:

 

  1.  Put the following code in an endpoint
<html>
<body>
<h1>4 The Content-Type Header Field</h1>
</body>
</html>

 2. set content type to text/html (click save) (then click to view endpoint)

    • This showed just the header content

 3. set content type to text/plain (click save) (then click to view endpoint)

    • This showed the full text

 

Hope this helps,

 

Yuri
