RE: Support or validation for asx files

Steve,

 

I firmly believe that ASX validation is well outside the scope of the W3
validator project, particularly as video/x-ms-asf clearly indicates that it
is a proprietary Microsoft format.

Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because its content type is
video/x-ms-asf, which is not currently supported by this service. 

The Content-Type header is sent by your web server (or web browser if you
use the file upload interface) and depends on its configuration. Commonly,
web servers will have a mapping of filename extensions (such as ".html") to
MIME Content-Type values (such as text/html). 

That you received this message can mean that your server is not configured
correctly, that your file does not have the correct filename extension, or
that you are attempting to validate a file type that we do not support yet.
In the latter case you should let us know that you need us to support that
content type (please include all relevant details, including the URL to the
standards document defining the content type) using the instructions on the
Feedback Page <http://validator.w3.org/feedback.html> .
