Look at the ratio of scripting to content (especially if you exclude styling from content. However, I do suspect that the very early adopters of XHTML 2 will actually produce documents that are readable as plain text, so would deserve a text/ media type. The next wave will be the fashion driven ones. If you can easily read the datastream in a plain text editor, it is text/*; if you really can only sensibly read it in a browser, it is application/*.Received on Monday, 2 April 2007 20:32:26 GMT
