IE works like this: in the first call to a web page, it checks the Content-Type and displays the web page accordingly. Next time you request the same page, it ignores the Content-Type. > > I know that this issue came up before on this > > list, but the solution suggested previously > > (adding a page directive with the content type) > > does not work. (Marius Scurtescu) So, do the following: 1. You have to make sure IE is foing to display the most recent page. You can do this by either adding a pragma/no-cache header, or go to (in IE): tools/internet options/temporary internet files/settings and, under "check for newer versions of stored pages", select the "every visit to the page" option. When you are developing, this last thing should ALWAYS be done. Otherwise, you might be getting IE cached versions of the web page and asking yourself why the changes aren't working. 2. Force IE to read the Content-Type again. Simply shut down the browser, and request your xhtml page to see if it works. Hope that helps.
