[Jscodee-devel] moving the xhtml back to html

[Gary F. <gar...@js...>]

I converted most of our pages to xhtml 1.1. Then I found out that 
Internet Explorer does not recognize the mime type for xhtml. sigh.

Back we go.

What happens is when IE gets a page that is XHTML, it asks if you want 
to download it or view it. When I view it, I get a copy that was 
downloaded to a temporary file. That messes up any images, the 
JavaScript and is just not right.

Back to HTML.

some info:

   XHTML 1.1 documents should use application/xhtml+xml.
   http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-media-types/

   Someone's adventures with going to XHTML 1.1 - lots of good stuff
   Item 2 about MIME type application/xhtml+xml

   Another that told how he coped with IE.

   That pointed to this German site which had the links to translate 
into English and good info.
   http://schneegans.de/tips/apache-xhtml.html

   That site pointed to this site that had even more good info. Look at 
the info about the content negotiation various browser have, the Accept: 
stuff. AND be sure to look at the site using IE. You have been warned!!!
