- Thread-topic: Media type (MIME) of XML in MS Word? in Notepad? when compressed? etc
Hi Folks,
Henri Sivonen said that if I take this simple XML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root>
Blah
</root>
and put it into Word,
then the media type (MIME) is:
application/msword
Conversely, if I put the same XML into Notepad, then the media type (MIME) is:
application/xml
Why is that? Why is it that if I put XML into one
editor (Word) I get a media
type that is specific to the editor, whereas if I put XML into another editor (Notepad) then I get a media
type that is independent of the editor?
Suppose that I put the XML into Wordpad, what is the media type?
What are the general rules for determining the media type
of XML?
/Roger
