WebCommon::contentType(3) Get the content type of the file

SYNOPSIS

String contentType( Uploaded file )

ARGUMENTS

file A user-uploaded file

DESCRIPTION

Returns the user-reported content type of the uploaded file (e.g. text/plain , application/pdf or image/png ). Depending on the configuration of the user's system, this information may not be completely reliable, and of course a malicious user could deliberately give an incorrect content type, so you may need to perform additional checks in some circumstances.
