Description fd 2010-10-01 07:31:00 UTC 
The mobileOK Checker parses the page under test as HTML no matter what, even when content is served as binary or is an SVG page served as image/svg+xml.

The report should make it clear that this is the case, and explains the rationale behind this (i.e. that the mobileOK Checker behaves as a basic mobile device that only supports XHTML Basic 1.1, and thus is very limited).

Also make it clear (with a global warning perhaps?) that the report is basically useless when the page is not an HTML page. Sure enough, SVG content does not start with "html".
