I have no idea how the information in the sitemap would be made available to the serializer; if anyone has a clue, I'd appreciate hearing it. In any case, I'm not sure why the serializer would ever return anything besides vnd.ms-excel or application/vnd.ms-excel > >Is this actually the intended behaviour?

When I was implementing that method, I searched the net for an appropriate mime type and that was the only one I found that was even remotely appropriate. > >-- >Rick Tessner >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > >"There are no bad days.
