Say you have a valid XHTML 1.1 document. You can *prove* it's valid -- by running it through a validator. Now you decide to "publish" it, and because the majority of UAs out there are IEx + some Netscape 4's (and you don't want to mess with UA sniffing), you serve it as text/html from your web server. And lo and behold, it displays fine in Netscape 4. So what do you mean, "that will never happen"? Content negotiation != content model. /JelksReceived on Friday, 13 December 2002 12:15:40 GMT
