According to the latest editor's draft (20 may 2008), a conforming
widget user agent needs to support zip/deflate, png, gif, xml, xmlns and
DOM3CORE. However, a conforming widget resource can also include other
kinds of contents (eg. SVG, SMIL, etc.) Thus there is no way in the
current draft for a user agent to check beforehand if it will actually
be able to run the widget. A solution could be to add in config.xml the
list of additional mime types a user agent must process for a given
resource :
<widget xmlns="http://www.w3.org/ns/widgets"
id="http://datadriven.com.au/exampleWidget"
version="2.0 Beta" height="200" width="200">
<name>The example widget!</name>
...
<requires mime="image/svg+xml"/>
<requires mime="application/smil"/>
</widget>
Also, in §5.2 [1] it is said that support for text/html is required.
Should this be added to §3 [2] ?
