Hi!

I was unable, by the way, to get any browser but Opera to recognize
the
type text/xsl as XML MIME type; Firefox from 1.5 to Minefield does not
seem to recognize it, and neither do IE6 and IE7 (on different
versions
of Windows, and even a Linux box for Firefox); my test case works in
all
these browsers if I simply use application/xml instead.
Here are results of my tests:
1) IE 7 seems to only recognize "text/xml" and "application/xml".
2) Firefox 2 recognizes anything with "xml" in it (e.g. "fooxml/bar").
3) WebKit recognizes proper XML MIME types, plus "text/xsl".
4) Opera tries to parse the response as XML regardless of MIME type.
Could you give
an example of a web page that works in IE and Firefox, yet depends on
them recognizing text/xsl as XML MIME type for XHR purposes?
I think that code depending on "text/xsl" is most likely to be found
among Dashboard widgets.
