Re: [ANN] A new live XForms example: the "DMV Forms" sample application

Hi Erik,

Nice little application you show us there. I have one question (as an 
XForms beginner). Your pages are returned using "text/html" and follow 
the HTML 4 DTD while including XForms element. Is it a correct way to 
return an XForms document? I mean I would have thought it should be 
either application/xml or application/xhtml+xml and follow the XHTML DTD 
instead so that the user agent know it deals with XML all the way through.

Is it a correct behavior?
