 * I have installed the newest version of Google Sitemap and I get this error on
   the sitemap page:
 * Error loading stylesheet: An XSLT stylesheet does not have an XML mimetype:
    
   blog/wp-content/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/sitemap.xsl

 * Try adding this to your .htaccess file (first line in the file):
    `AddType text/
   xml .xsl`
 * That will force Apache to serve the .xsl file with the correct MIME type, which
   should allow Firefox to work correctly.

 * No it still says the same thing, unless I’m supposed to wait a little while before
   it takes effect.

 * Well, you may need to clear your browser cache and/or close and reopen the browser
   to see any difference.
