I don't think you quite appreciate the situation yet. An HTTP client does not *request* any particular mime type; the client *may* specify the mime types it would like to accept in response, but the server is pretty much allowed to return whatever it wants (or a 406, at the server's discretion). If the client doesn't like a response type of application/xml, too bad for the client. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
