Well the only difference in the pages being served is the mime type application/html vs. application/xhtml+xml. Does anyone know the original impetus to using application/xhtml+xml (despite the fact that it's technically the correct choice) vs. just using application/html for everything? I'm sure there was a good reason behind it and I'd rather know what that reason was before I got changing things
Presumably the motivation is so you know ahead of time that you can invoke an XML parser rather than an SGML/HTML parser.
Note: http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-media-types/ states that text/html is considered acceptable for HTML-compatible XHTML 1.0 but no other version of XHTML 1.0. One of the main issues with making XHTML 1.0-compatible is to make sure there is a space before the final / in the last singleton: <foo /> rather than <foo/>
