-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- The HTML 4.0 draft says to see <ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in- notes/iana/assignments/media-types/> "for a complete list of valid scripting language types." [1] In the previous sentence, the draft gives "text/tcl", "text/javascript", and "text/vbscript" as examples of valid scripting language types. However, none of these media types is listed at the IANA reference. This practice of using unregistered Internet Media Types seems quite common these days, as "text/css", "image/fif", "audio/voxware", and many others are widely used despite not being assigned by the IANA. Is the assignment of Internet Media Types by the IANA no longer a consideration? While I could understand Netscape not bothering to get "text/javascript" registered, I would have thought that the W3C would have seen to it that "text/css" was assigned.
