I've noticed this too-- for some reason the W3C site is serving Mozilla straight
XML, whereas it serves plain old HTML for NC and IE.  I've viewed the source and
there is no XSL or CSS stylesheet attached for us to use; I would expect that
the xslt spec would at least give us a stylesheet by which to display the XML,
but apparently not.

Unsure where the problem lies here -- but the fact that w3.org serves us XML but
everybody else HTML makes me think it's a w3c issue.

This is a server configuration problem.

Mozilla says that it accepts text/xml. The server at www.w3.org sends some
text/xml to Mozilla. However, that XML is *unstyled*. Hence Mozilla displayes it
unstyled.

With this request:
GET /TR/xslt HTTP/1.1
Host: www.w3.org:80
Accept: text/xml, text/html;q=0.9

The server sends unstyled XML.

With this request:
GET /TR/xslt HTTP/1.1
Host: www.w3.org:80
Accept: text/html

The server sends HTML.

dupe of bug 88614?

Comment 6

[James Lariviere]

yep, it looks like a dupe to me but because Henri Sivonen gives a better
explaination of what is happening I would suggest duping that bug to this one
(even though it is a lower #).

[Zach Lipton [:zach]]

Yes. This looks like a dup to me. Some kind person, please verify this.
