Replying to [comment:1 chrisz]:
> Since you say "''also'' IE does not know about app/xhtml+xml", do you
want to say that there are also ''other'' problems with IE, or should I
read it as "''because'' IE does not know about app/xhtml+xml", so this is
only this one issue? I assume the latter.
Sorry, wrong formulation.
I know about:
IE6, IE7: Don't work.[[BR]]
FF3, Opera8: Works.
> And I agree, this is a serious issue and it needs to be fixed in TG
1.0.8. Most people are probably using TG's default html format, that's why
nobody cried earlier.
Thank you.

xhtml.

'text/html' as default.
> 3. Make the whole mapping from template formats to content types (as
used in view.base.render) configurable, with 'text/html' as default for
xhtml.
> 4. Use content negotiation (based on the Accept header, not the User-
Agent-Header!). But I fear this will lead into even more problems.
Fix4 looks better for me, but all fixes can be good. May be
autonegitiation with configurable overwrite can be good too.
As with this content type Firefox is working different way, I know now,
that for FF it's a proper way and application/xhtml+xml is a feature.
