For certain content-types (I don't /think/ it is all of the, but it could be), Internet Explorer will decide how to handle a file based on what looks like a file extension from the URI instead of the content-type. It is really sick and broken, and one bug that I would really rather avoid exploiting (especially since IE isn't the only client out that which can't handle XHTML). -- David Dorward http://dorward.me.uk/ http://blog.dorward.me.uk/
