Post subject: What did I break? IE suddenly only displays source of JSP files,
Archived from groups: alt>www>webmaster (more info?)

This is an odd one... I wanted to test some pages I've been working on
this morning in IE, and all of a sudden IE asks me if I want to download
the file (rather than rendering the page). When I take a look at the
file it wants to download, it's the generated source. Same page in
Mozilla and Firefox renders with no questions asked. Anyone got any clues?

In Firefox hit Control-J and check that the mime-type of the offending
page is text/html (or application/xhtml+xml perhaps). Do you have a URI
for the page that we can see?

It's "application/xhtml+xml" - I can't give you an url as my clients'
server isn't public

uhgggg well if I force the content type to be "text/html" at the server,
IE loads the page fine.

That's the problem, IE doesn't support XHTML without a registry hack.
You could either switch back to text/html or do some content negotiation
and see if the client accepts(*) XHTML mime-types before serving
application/xhtml+xml
* = I think it's a bit more involved than that because a client may
accept application/xhtml+xml but prefer text/html. I know that a couple
of folks in this group have crossed this hurdle so maybe they can help
here more than I can.

Aye it is, it's really nice to go up towards the Eden estuary and sit
amongst the huge sand dunes with a good book and flask of coffee and
maybe spot an inquisitive seal or two. Mind you I've just come back from
3 weeks in and around the Highlands
(www.andrewu.co.uk/photo/?category=1) - all I can think about is how
soon I can get back there! Currently thinking about MTBing my way around
and staying in hostels/camping on the cheap. At the same time though I'm
faced with the prospect of having to move near to London if I want the
kind of job I'm looking for, ugh, not fair!
Cheers,

It's great! I just gave up on my table free design here... 4 days and I
was getting no where. I'd just got it working *perfectly* in IE and
found that Firefox chewed it up. Then spent the last few hours fixing it
in Firefox, and now IE trashes it. Took 15 minutes to wrap the page in a
table and ALL the browsers display it fine.
Lets face it, CSS sucks

I can't entirely claim credit. I had a far more basic version; Bertilo
Wennergren suggested lots of great stuff to extract and compare 'q'
values; I pointed out some failings in his; he improved his regexp stuff;
I pilfered it, optimised it and added a few special cases (e.g. wget).

Thanks Toby... I'll translate that into ASP later. If anyone is
interested, I'll post the source back here.
