Why is it allowed to send XHTML 1.0 documents as text/html?
Answer Posted / guest
XHTML is an XML format; this means that strictly speaking it
should be sent with an XML-related media type
(application/xhtml+xml, application/xml, or text/xml).
However XHTML 1.0 was carefully designed so that with care
it would also work on legacy HTML user agents as well. If
you follow some simple guidelines, you can get many XHTML
1.0 documents to work in legacy browsers. However, legacy
browsers only understand the media type text/html, so you
have to use that media type if you send XHTML 1.0 documents
to them. But be well aware, sending XHTML documents to
browsers as text/html means that those browsers see the
documents as HTML documents, not XHTML documents.
