Hi I don't know if this is known bug (I'm not even sure that it's a bug at all), but the CSS validator seems to ignore the MIME type specified by the server if you give it an HTML file as input and the HTML file includes a <link rel="somecssfile.css" type="text/css">. An example: The Content-Type returned for <http://www.physik.rwth-aachen.de/~rosenbl/bb/formats.css> is application/x-pointplus, so when trying to validate it <http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.physik.rwth-aachen.de%2F%7Erosenbl%2Fbb%2Fformats.css&warning=1&profile=css2>, the validator says "I/O Error: Unknown mime type". But when you point the validator to an HTML document which has a <link> to the file, such as <http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http://www.physik.rwth-aachen.de/~rosenbl/bb/>, you are told that the file is valid CSS! Bug? /Jonas
