Hi Yaniv,

I think the multipart/form-data should be dissected by the multipart
media dissector; the multipart parts will be dissected based on their
content-type header. This is also what I checked in.

Regards,

Olivier

| I'd be happy if this can be added to packet-text-media.c:
|
|     dissector_add_string("media_type", "multipart/form-data",
| text_lines_handle);
|
|
| I didn't supply a diff'ed patch, because I'm not sure it's the
ultimate
| solution to parse multipart/form-data objects.
| Specifically, I see that the parsing of media is done in the packet
| boundaries, and not on the stream - so if there are other parts in
the
| next packet, it is treated sa 'continuation'.
|
| Still, I think it improves the current situation.
