DO NOT REPLY [Bug 50412] New: if IndexOptions +XHTML, the correct MIME type should be automatically choosen

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50412

           Summary: if IndexOptions +XHTML, the correct MIME type should
                    be automatically choosen
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.3-HEAD
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: mod_autoindex
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: calestyo@scientia.net


Hi.

It seems that even if IndexOptions +XHTML Apache sends "text/html" as MIME type
instead of the correct "application/xhtml+xml".
This should happen automatically.

Cheers,
Chris.

I personally always had the experience that having text/html with XHTML makes
actually more troubles.

Typically browsers interpret it then as HTML (e.g. Firefox does so) and having
things like <textarea/> or <script/> which is totally valid in XHTML, breaks
the whole rendering.

And text/html is at least deprecated, IIRC.

since XHTML1.0 says text/html is okay, this might be more harm than good. 
Probably necessary to make sure Accept header has the xhtml mimetype, and to
make it validate as xhtml 1.0 too.

All modernish browsers seem to fully support application/xhtml+xml in the
meantime... so this could really be done I guess.
