The
MIME types configuration file determines how your Virtual Server's web server maps filename extensions to MIME types
that are returned to the browser. Your browser then maps
these MIME types to "helper" applications or
in-line plug-ins. Although the default mime.types
configuration file includes a definition of the most common
known MIME types, you are free to modify the file to add
support for any additional MIME type that you desire.
Adding a New MIME Type
Definition Append the definition
to the existing MIME types in the file in the following
format (where type/subtype is the MIME
type of the document whose filename ends with one of
the extensions listed):
type/subtype
extension1 extension2 … extensionN
Note: Lines beginning
with a "#" are comment lines and are
ignored by the web server.
The extension list includes
any number of space-separated filename extensions. Examples
of MIME type entries can be found in the default MIME
types file included with your virtual web service.
