That's not registered either. A mime type for XSLT is likely to be registered soon, as instructed in the "Internet Media Type registration, consistency of use" TAG finding [1] > My reading of RFC 3023 leads me to conclude that since "normal people" > do not read want to look at style sheets, "application/xml" should be > used rather than "text/xml" for XSL/XSLT sheets.

I can see arguments both ways, but since RFC3023 proposes application/xslt+xml it is likely that that one would be chosen. Unless the WG registers text/xsl, in order to stay consistent with existing implementations. Max.Received on Thursday, 18 July 2002 12:52:46 GMT
