I was writing a small web application recently, and I - naturally - served my XHTML 1.1 as the MIME type prescribed by the standard. However, I ran into two issues:

1) Internet Explorer 6 on windows does not recognise the MIME type, asking the user where to save it. 2) Using Safari - with both released and (then) trunk WebKit - cookies didn't work. I've filed this bug in radar.

So until the bugs are fixed WebKit, and IE7 sees widespread acceptance, I'd say the world isn't ready for application/xhtml+xml.

IE7 won't support XHTML either.

I think the upshot is that you should make your content into proper HTML and serve it as text/html, if you want to serve it on the web.

Regards,
Maciej
