If Safari is capable of handing the correct mime type, how can (why would) it serve 4.01 strict? -- Bob www.gwelanmor-internet.co.uk *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Probably because Safari is cheating :-) I don't know much about Safari - only use it for basic testing, but the following turned up in my archives from a discussion I had on the subject a year or so ago. 1: Don't think Safari has a genuine xml-parser. Suspect Safari to use the same parser as for 'text/html'. 2: Don't think Safari responds with the right information in the accept headers. It prefers 'text/html', and says so. Others must know more about this than I do, so I'll leave it at that.

Probably because Safari is cheating :-) Not really. Safari's Accept Headers: Accept: */* translated: 'I prefer text/html' The latest Webkit builds report this: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/ plain;q=0.8, 1: Don't think Safari has a genuine xml-parser. Suspect Safari to use the same parser as for 'text/html'. Don't think so. But just as with other browsers, the xml-parser is much weaker and prone to bugs compared to the html parser. Note also: Safari only knows about the five required named entities. If you use other named entities, Safari will report an error. (Gecko and Opera know internally about about most named entities). Use numerical entities instead.
