Not entirely. While Konqueror does no content-sniffing. It simply trusts the mimetypes of the network stack. The content "detection" is in the KDE HTTP- daemon. Without content "detection" almost nothing would work. It is quite simple though, as it just replaces a few simple "unknown" types with the default type of the protocol (HTML). This is compatible with at least older versions of Firefox, but not with IE that completely ignores mimetype. `Allan
