LVII. Mimetype Functions

Introduzione

The functions in this module try to guess the content type and encoding of a file by looking for certain magic byte sequences at specific positions within the file. While this is not a bullet proof approach the heuristics used do a very good job.

This extension is derivated from Apache mod_mime_magic, which is itself based on the file command maintaind by Ian F. Darwin. See the source code for further historic and copyright information.

Requisiti

Queste funzioni sono disponibili nei moduli standard, che sono sempre disponibili.

Istallazione
