Same result with Safari 3.0.2 for Windows. > Firefox and Opera (on Mac OS X) do the right thing though. Not for me (on Windows). Firefox (2.0.0.4) doesn't show the first image nor its fallback content (nothing at all, as if it weren't in the page) Opera (9.21) shows "Image" in a "box" (i.e. missing image without @alt) for the first image (i.e. rich fallback isn't displayed) > When IE (ir?) adds easy XHTML support, perhaps they can have that fixed. They probably won't. XHTML (i.e. application/xhtml+xml) on the web has failed, that's why we're here discussing HTML 5 (because it means XForms on the Web has failed too). Eventually serving XHTML as application/xml could work but a) you have to provide a full-fledge CSS stylesheet (browsers don't use their "default stylesheet for HTML" in this case) and b) at the cost of losing "support" for non-XML-aware browsers. -- Thomas Broyer
