According to the latest editor's draft (20 may 2008), a conforming widget user agent needs to support zip/deflate, png, gif, xml, xmlns and DOM3CORE. However, a conforming widget resource can also include other kinds of contents (eg. SVG, SMIL, etc.) Thus there is no way in the current draft for a user agent to check beforehand if it will actually be able to run the widget. A solution could be to add in config.xml the list of additional mime types a user agent must process for a given resource : <widget xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets" id="http://datadriven.com.au/exampleWidget" version="2.0 Beta" height="200" width="200"> <name>The example widget!</name> ... <requires mime="image/svg+xml"/> <requires mime="application/smil"/> </widget> Also, in §5.2 [1] it is said that support for text/html is required. Should this be added to §3 [2] ?
