Well... 1) _With_ a content type all versions of Netscape, opera up through 6 (have not tested 7), Konqueror of all versions I have tried, Mozilla, lynx, links, w3m will unconditionally honor the header. The only browser I have found that does not is IE. I have been unable to test mac-only browsers such as omniweb or icab. 2) Ebay does not send a content type. I consider this a bug in ebay, but this means that every browser has _some_ type detection already -- not rendering ebay is not an option for a browser that actually wants to be used. 3) What's the worst thing a browser could do without a content type? Assume a default type of some sort? In any case, there is a discussion I'm trying to start on the mailing list on the topic, and indeed a lot of this would belong better there. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
