So, apache returns "application/xml" for ".xsl" files and ML returns "application/xslt+xml".
I changed the MIMETYPE in the admin console for "application/xml" to be for extension ".xsl", and now ML will behave like apache (at least in the case of .xsl). And thus, my code will work in IE (which doesn't seem to know what "application/xslt+xml" is. So, is this the correct way to handle the problem (or did I just cause a problem for some other type of operations)? In other words, why did ML choose to set extensions "xslt" and "xsl" to "application/xslt+xml" and apache choose to set "xsl" to "application/xml"? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Geert Josten Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2011 12:56 PM To: General MarkLogic Developer Discussion Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] IE(8), ML and XSLTForms Wow, that was nearly a year ago.. :) I could imagine that IE is still using the mime-type specified in XSLT 1.0. The XSL FAQ (http://www.dpawson.co.uk/xsl/sect2/mimetypes.html) is talking about text/xsl. The mime-type you mention is specified by XSLT 2.0. You can adjust the mime-types in the admin console, that might already help. Otherwise, you might be interested to know that MarkLogic Server 4.2 supports XSLT. The tricky part is that XSLTForms is in XSLT 1.0 as far as I know, while MarkLogic Server implements XSLT 2.0, but it might be worth a go. It will allow you to do the XSLT part server-side, which should save you from this browser fuss..

(LNG-DAY) Verzonden: woensdag 13 juli 2011 18:13 Aan: General Mark Logic Developer Discussion Onderwerp: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] IE(8), ML and XSLTForms I pretty much gave up on trying to figure this out a while ago and just stuck with using Firefox to test my code, but now I need for it to work in IE, so I'm back... The response that MarkLogic is sending seems to be for a content type of "application/xslt+xml" for the .xsl files and I'm wondering if this is a problem for IE, but not for other browsers? If it is, is there a method I can use to get a content type for the .xsl files from MarkLogic that will work for IE as well as the rest of the browsers?

Browsers can behave quite differently in specific situations. You mention that you address the hello example as a .xml file, which means it is returned by MarkLogic Server without real processing. I suspect that IE could be ignoring an essential response header from the server. If you change the extension of the file to .xqy, then if will be processed as an xquery. It might require escaping some characters, but you will have the opportunity to tweak the response headers manually. Have you tried putting a tcp tunnel in between to see whether the http traffic shows any differences between IE and FF?
