@ Tino:
IE does support XHTML: it renders documents declaring XHTML doctype without going in quirks mode. What IE doesn't yet support is serving XHTML documents as XML with the correct MIME type. But it's another story.

Andreas: pages served as text/html should be treated as HTML and nothing else, and that is what all browsers do. Same with this testpage; it is send as text/html so basically it *is* HTML but with a wrong DTD, and invalid HTML with that...
That's the problem with XHTML; people don't know how and when to use it so basically it is just a lost case.

Tag-minimization is only allowed in XHTML which IE doesn't support; basically this is invalid HTML...
