Re: [WSG] (X)HTML Best Practice Sheet updated for MSIE
I have now made it possible for MSIE to see my sheet as well.
I have provided an plain HTML version, but do not want any linking to
it. This is the set of rules in my .htaccess that I think should do the
trick:
---
RewriteEngine On
# The simple html version shall not be directly accessible!
RedirectMatch 301 html-elements-plain\.html \
http://egen.keryx.pad/resources/html-elements.xhtml
# The next ruleset changes nothing but should stop the following \
from executing
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} application/xhtml\+xml
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} !application/xhtml\+xml\s*;\s*q=0
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.xhtml
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} HTTP/1\.1
RewriteRule .* - [L]
# Go easy on MSIE and some bots
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.xhtml$
RewriteRule html-elements.xhtml html-elements-plain.html [T=text/html] [L]
---
It works with FFox, Opera 9.2, Safari for Windows (complained at first
about too many redirects for no apparent reason) and MSIE 6. The latter
will miss two CSS 3 selectors and inserts line breaks like this:
[B]
lock(-
ish)/
[I]
nline(-
ish)/
[T]able
Any easy way to fix this except for nobr?
Please report any problems ASAP as I see that some people have started
to link to my little sheet. (At least three on Magnolia...)
Lars Gunther
P.S. MSIE will not recognize the check mark on my XP box, neither will
Safari.

The same link works on the same machines in Opera v.9.22. Did not test beyond that. Not sure about your htaccess code. You might also consider an alternative scripting method of serving the page to MSIE versions, such as one of these: http://sitesurgeon.co.uk/articles/serving-xhtml-correctly.html http://www.workingwith.me.uk/articles/scripting/mimetypes Phil. *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
