XHTML in general has to be served as application/xhtml+xml, application/xml or text/xml to be valid. So serving the files with a mimetype other than the required results in invalid XHTML, although the format looks XHTML valid.

Actually xHTML works fine in IE provided it is xHTML 1.0 served as text through a mime type of text/html. It's the xhtml served as : application/xhtml+xml, application/xml or text/xml that causes problems in IE.(That's why I can't go to xHTML 1.1 since it has to be served with one of those mime types.) http://www.w3.org/International/articles/serving-xhtml/ Just remember to dump the prolog when serving xHTML (<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>). It throws IE into quirks mode. (Quirks mode = non cross browser rendering compatibility and is not to be desired). <cf_northeasternshout> Hallelujah!

XHTML is still unsupported by IE, so if you need to develop for IE, use quirks mode at least, or stick to 4.01 Micha Schopman Software Engineer Modern Media, Databankweg 12 M, 3821 AL Amersfoort Tel 033-4535377, Fax 033-4535388 KvK Amersfoort 39081679, Rabo 39.48.05.380 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----- Modern Media, Making You Interact Smarter.
