Yes! the browser takes the content type, which is sent by the server as part of the http-header. but have a look at this ugly anouncement http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2005/09/15/467901.aspx .

Not sure if I understand your question... I thought the server sent the content type and not the browser?

what is your content type header that the browser is sending?

Ok, but I tried changing the content type to text/html with no change in the outcome...
What else do I need to do to make IE work?

Most browsers need content type of text/html, even for XHTML
documents. It is a bug in the browser.

When I use the following in my xhtml page..:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd ">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en"

   xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html";>
<head>
 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml"/>
 <meta http-equiv="Pragma" content="no-cache"/>
 <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1"/>
<link href="#{facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath}/ secure/css/stylesheet2.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"/> </head>

it works great in Firefox. But trying to open the same page in IE, IE just asks f I want to save the file or
find a program online to open it....

How can I code the page so IE will display the page correctly?
