help with w3c validator problem please
« on: November 24, 2004, 02:39:38 AM »
When validating a file with Navigator all is well----but the same file validated with IE returns the following message :-


"Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because its content type is text/plain, which is not currently supported by this service.

The Content-Type field is sent by your web server (or web browser if you use the file upload interface) and depends on its configuration. Commonly, web servers will have a mapping of filename extensions (such as ".html") to MIME Content-Type values (such as text/html).

That you recieved this message can mean that your server is not configured correctly, that your file does not have the correct filename extension, or that you are attempting to validate a file type that we do not support yet. In the latter case you should let us know that you need us to support that content type (please include all relevant details, including the URL to the standards document defining the content type) using the instructions on the Feedback Page"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
With Opera the same file gets :_ "Sorry, this type of
       URL
       scheme ("undefined") is not supported by this service. Please check
       that you entered the URL correctly.
   
URLs should be in the form: http://validator.w3.org/
If you entered a valid URL using a scheme that we should support,
       please let us know as outlined on our
       Feedback page. Make sure to include the
       specific URL you would like us to support, and if possible provide a
       reference to the relevant standards document describing the URL scheme
       in question.
   
Remember that you can always save the page to disk and Validate it
       using the File Upload interface.
   
Incomplete support for SSL and TLS is a known
       limitation and is being tracked as
       Issue #77."
------------------------------------------------------------------------    
Are there some settings I need to alter on IE and Opera to correct the problem ?
with thanks
