Hello everybody!
I'm new to mobile web dev, so I follow your tips as much as I can (great work, guys!!!).
I develop using an IIS 6.0 web server; I added to my web site the custom HTTP header: "Content-type=application/xhtml+xml;charset=utf-8" coupled with

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">
.....
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml;charset=UTF-8" />

This way my site was completely readyMoby-compliant (5 - hooray!!!!) and W3C-compliant, BUT I wasn't able to see images (gif/png) anymore in the dotMobi emulator, Openwave simulator, SONY Ericsson T-68i browser.
Besides, using the dotMoby emulator I see a message in the browser status bar:
Not acceptable: application/xhtml+xml: http://.....////myImage.gif

I would appreciate some help

Roberto

It sounds as though you are serving everything with an application/xhtml content type. But you should only be serving the XHTML with that content type, GIF images still need Content-Type: image/gif

Jo, thank you for your help!

I changed the HTTP header to "Content-type: application/xhtml+xml;image/gif;charset=utf-8" in IIS6.0, adding:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">
.....
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml;image/gif;charset=UTF-8" />

..to the code, but nothing changed: I wonder if it is a IIS6.0 issue, but I haven't found anything in the web about it
