It's not just Safari.  When trying either of the above links on IE
running on WinXP, you get the option to save the file or cancel.  You
don't even get the choice to open.

I'm guessing that maybe IE isn't doing content-negotiation correctly?
Anyone with IE and a sniffer handy that can tell us what the headers
look like on the request?

But both Safari and IE having the same error in the content-negotiation?

I suspect that the problem may be that Apache and/or Safari and IE aren't
designed correctly for handling content-negotiation of textual documents with
the character encoding specified (i.e. "text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1").

I have hacked my configuration of Apache a bit, so there is a chance that even
buggy browsers will get the documents.  Does it help?  (the critical URL is
<http://lego.jacob-sparre.dk/By/Huse/Tre_hjoernehuse/#square-ghost-cafe> - does
it help omitting the in-page-id?
<http://lego.jacob-sparre.dk/By/Huse/Tre_hjoernehuse/>)

Play well,

Jacob
