Re: [WSG] W3C Validater doesn't recognize XHTML

[noa]

The W3C validator does recognise "application/xhtml+xml".  The problem 
might be that you're not checking for the W3C's user agent string when 
you decide which browsers to send which MIME type to.  The string is 
"W3C_Validator".

According to the W3C, my valid XHTML 1.1 page only validates to HTML

serve up the correct header and DOCTYPE, so apparently, their 
validater doesn't recognize that mime type!

It would be nice to be able to use the logo, but if anyone checks, 
they'll be told the wrong thing. Where this becomes a big problem is 
if you promise a client valid XHTML 1.1 and the validater says 
otherwise...
