In development mode, it'll automatically serve up HTML pages with the content- +type 'application/xhtml+xml' — which means that standards-aware browsers will show an exception page +if you enter invalid XHTML markup. +Of course, IE6 and friends can't handle that MIME type, so the plugin makes sure that they get the +pages as 'text/html.' Also, to more easily deal with user-generated content in the wild, anything +coming out of the production environment will also be served as 'text/html.' Example ======= -Example goes here. +The only thing you have to do to get this running is add a before filter to your application +controller: + +class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base + before_filter :handle_with_ie +end + +And even that's optional, if you don't care to serve 'text/html' to IE6, et al. in development mode. + +Happy hacking!
