Description Mag 2005-01-19 13:24:32 UTC 
When I try top validate a HTML file using the file upload it does now work, 
error: Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because its content type 
is text/plain, which is not currently supported by this service. 

When I validate the very same file from a webserver using the URL method it 
works fine. 

I use the file checker a lot and was wondering if this is a quick fix? It was 
invaluable to me in the past. 
Thanks! Mag!
