 then Jarno.Elovirta@xxxxxxxxx wroteWhich media types are currently used in xml-stylesheet processing instructions for XSLT? I know about application/xslt+xml, and the unregistered text/xsl. Are there any others in use? to be clear;Browsing the Mozilla CVS, nsXMLContentSink.cpp <http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/content/xml/document/src/nsXMLContentSink.cpp> seems to check for XSLT 1.0 spec states that MIME types text/xml and application/xml 'should' be used, though there are a few caveats; - The spec goes on to say that new media types can 'also' be used, so things like text/xsl is fine. - I tend to avoid the mime-type text/xml....as this conflicts with what various specs say on how to determine charset (XML and RFC3023).... - IE (last time I checked) uses text/xsl - Mozilla is fine with text/xml and application/xml...and something I didnt know (from Jarno's post) apparantly uses text/xsl as well - and |application/xslt+xml is the mime-type as specified in the XSLT 2.0 draft spec |clear as mud....from a server perspective I still tend to first check device, then browser, browser type, version....then send the correct mime-type (with lang/charset being checked somewhere along that sequence) based on the exact browser type/version and XSLT processor version. gl, Jim Fuller
