This is, to my way of thinking, ridiculous. > Validtion should be the same irrespective of the file name! Your attachment was sent to the list as "text/xml", as which it is fine. By renaming as .html, you presumably caused it to be sent to the validator as "text/html". It is not a valid HTML document. The name is of no consequence to the validator, but it affects many webservers, and browsers in the context of file upload. -- Nick KewReceived on Monday, 25 November 2002 13:46:29 UTC
