Dear HTML Working Group, On http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/2004/xhtml-faq.html#mime11 you write: [...] Why is it disallowed to send XHTML 1.1 documents as text/html? XHTML 1.1 is pure XML, and only intended to be XML. It cannot reliably be sent to legacy browsers. Therefore XHTML 1.1 documents must be sent with an XML-related media type, such as application/xhtml+xml. [...] This is inconsistent with RFC 2854, the XHTML 1.0 Second Edition Recommendation and the XHTML Media Types Note which both do not disallow serving XHTML 1.1 as text/html. And I think that your experience with delivering the XHTML 1.1 Recommendation for now more than three years as XHTML 1.1 as text/html without any remarkable problem, clearly suggests that the unreliability you discuss either does not exist or is not relevant. Please change the text at least to reflect the specifications I cited. regards.Received on Friday, 16 July 2004 14:11:04 UTC
