"No FormatHandler could be found" errors

[telethonic]

Hello,

For XML model files that previously worked fine I'm suddenly seeing this error:

"TypeError: No FormatHandler could be found for the document http://localhost/test/basic.xml"

Was there a change, or is there something obvious I'm missing?

Also, if the issue tracker is not the right venue for these types of reports, please let me know.

Thanks.

Update: replacing the script http://www.xml3d.org/xml3d/script/xml3d.js with a version
that I pulled a few weeks ago made the error disappear :(

Yeah we made some changes to the way resources are loaded in the 5.1 release, a colleague here is having the same problem. It must be related to the way some HTTP servers deliver .xml files.

I'll take a look at this today and hopefully push a fix, in the mean time just stick to http://www.xml3d.org/xml3d/script/xml3d-5.0.js ;)

Thanks for the report! This is definitely the right place for bugs like this, more general questions can be posted to StackOverflow using the xml3d tag, that way other people can more easily see the answers.

Hi,

the new FormatHandler accepts XML files with Content-Type application/xml only. Some HTTP servers stills deliver XML files with text/xml.

I had the same issue and committed a fix to develop: 9bcd6d0

Thanks :)

Just updated the scripts with a hotfix for this so you should be able to use http://www.xml3d.org/xml3d/script/xml3d.js again ;)

Just checked, and yes, it works again.

From now on I'll load local copies to be on the safe side..

Or link to a specific version like http://www.xml3d.org/xml3d/script/xml3d-5.1.1.js. Any version with 3 numbers like that (a.b.c) won't ever change again once it's uploaded.
