Hi Lachlan,

An document with <xbl xmlns="http://.../xbl";> as its root element will
already provide that functionality much more reliably than the MIME
type.  It's the namespace that matters in XML, not the MIME type.

But that was one of Mark's points, I think...that an XSLT with <xbl>
as the root element could be mistaken for an XBL document.

(And to answer Ian's question as to why you might want to have such an
XSLT file--how about a transform for creating XBL from HTC?)


Another reason would be to allow for content negotiation, but that would
only be useful if there were ever another binding language for browsers
to choose from and authors had a reason to provide equivalent bindings
in two different languages.

Which I think is very likely. (To link back to another discussion, I
also think it's likely that you could have more than one language
inside the XBL document itself.)

Regards,

Mark
