With 55.0.3 I can view XML contents directly in the browser, even in clean profile. With 57, it's either blank or a single line of numbers or something.

55.0.3:
57:
So far no luck finding an extension to help with it. It did find a JSON viewer http://census.daybreakgames.com/json/get/eq2/ but sometimes easier to read the XML. Anyway, I'm just trying to get my beta install as close to my normal one and I've found many extensions that replace the functionality of my Legacy ones. The XML thing was just a basic Firefox behavior. Hmmm.. Well, suppose I can use the Web Developer interface to view the code.

its server error
from chromium:
no firefox fault.
from chromium:
the tree is an internal chromium function. (as you noticed in v55)This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
no firefox fault.

Re: 57beta: How to View XML in Browser?
I just tested the XML file in Fx Portable Release 56.0 and Fx Portable Beta 57.0b3.
http://census.daybreakgames.com/xml/get/eq2/
Same result in both versions. The pages look normal like your image for Fx 55.0.3.

OK, with a clean profile it looks normal. So, some setting or extension is causing it. Hmmm...
Now it's working with my normal profile. What gives? Very interesting.

The Hover Zoom+ extension is causing it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... src=search
With Imagus enabled instead, it views the XML files normally. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... us/?src=ss

Re: 57beta: How to View XML in Browser?
thank you for feedback. nevertheless chromium and also fireox 58 do not show a formatted xml content. so at least its still a server error.

Re: 57beta: How to View XML in Browser?
It's not a server error. Well, maybe with some specific ones. But the correct MIME type is being sent. Works in IE11 and Google Chrome. Works in 57beta as long as that one extension isn't enabled (for me). Anyway, it's been duplicated by others here https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1404266

Re: 57beta: How to View XML in Browser?
It's true that the server is not sending any style information. Firefox applies some on its own when that happens (which is most of the time.)
