Perhaps it fundamentally is a stylesheet problem: IE displays the XML that it receives using a stylesheet (that's how you get all the fancy colours and indenting etc). It could be that the default stylesheet that IE is using (from the MS install) is broken in this respect for XHTML. I suspect tho that you may need to declare the XHTML namespace in your document - but I can't say what the correct syntax for this is.
