[RADIATOR] "Expiration" attribute troubles

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Andrew -

I suggest you alter the second definition in the dictionary as  
follows (you'll need to restart Radiator to re-read the dictionary):


ATTRIBUTE       OSC-Expiration              90480001        string


and see how you go with Expiration then.

This appears to be a historical artifact, as "Expiration" was not  
initially defined in the RFC's.

Can you tell me what you are using this for?

regards

Hugh
