I was wondering if http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-abarth-mime-sniff should not contain the error handling rules for parsing the Content-Type as well. It seems potentially dangerous if one user agent were to treat the value "text/html;" as bogus and fallback to "text/plain" whereas another would treat it as "text/html". -- Anne van Kesteren http://annevankesteren.nl/
