[a bit off topic] Trying to use xhtml instead of html, problem with
IE?
When I use the following in my xhtml page..:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml"/>
<meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache"/>
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1"/>
<link href="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/secure/css/stylesheet2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
</head>
it works great in Firefox. But trying to open the same page in IE, IE just asks f I want to save the file or find a
program online to open it....
How can I code the page so IE will display the page correctly?
Regards,
BTJ

I open my xhtml page as :
<xhtml xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC
"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"><html dir="ltr" lang="en">
I have no issues in any browser (ie/mozilla/opera/firefox/konqueror/safari).

Yes! the browser takes the content type, which is sent by the server
as part of the http-header. but have a look at this ugly anouncement http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/09/15/467901.aspx
.

Not sure if I understand your question... I thought the server sent the content type and not the browser?

what is your content type header that the browser is sending?

Ok, but I tried changing the content type to text/html with no change in the outcome...
What else do I need to do to make IE work?

Most browsers need content type of text/html, even for XHTML
documents. It is a bug in the browser.
