Hi,

I am looking for an appropriate media type to use when serving HTML snippets that have a <div> as their root element.

I feel that serving HTML document fragments has become such a common scenario, I think there must be some solution already. However - I cannot find anything appropriate.

The closest thing is likely Atom's type attribute: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287#section-3.1.1.3

Can anyone provide a pointer or ideas?

Or is it time probably time for application/xhtml-div+xml

Jan
