http_mime_type, http_mime_type_add — look up and register MIME-type bindings for file extensions
Synopsis
varchar http_mime_type(

in extension varchar); |
http_mime_type_add(
|
in extension varchar, |
in mime_type varchar); |
Description
http_mime_type returns the MIME content type the
server's HTTP layer associates with the given file
extension (such as 'html',
'xml', 'png'). The returned string
is the value that would be used in the Content-Type
header for a static file with that extension.
http_mime_type_add installs or replaces the binding
for extension, mapping it to
mime_type. Pass a NULL
mime_type to remove an existing mapping. Subsequent
calls to http_mime_type and the HTTP file server pick
up the change immediately. Useful for adding custom MIME types for new
file formats served through the WebDAV or static-file layers.
