JSF2.0, mod_proxy and CSS

Tue, 23 Nov 2010 01:59:13 +0100

I stumbled upon a strange issue when I recently deployed a JSF 2.0 web application. The application was developed using Jetty, and was working fine there. However when I deployed the application on a server, the page layout was utterly broken and Firefox complained that it would not load some CSS resources because of the wrong content type application/xml+xhtml.
