Is it possible to include a wildcard entry in the ExtensionMap.ini
file? I want to include something like this:
.* bin_ bin_ application/octet-stream
Which would mean any unknown file type is allowed to be downloaded
using the above MIME type.
It's a good idea, please enter it as a feature request in the issue
tracker.
people are uploading files in formats I hadn't considered. Since
the files are for others to download, I would prefer to allow them
to be downloaded without having to deal with the problem as users
discover it.
You have to tell people on your upload page what formats you accept
and that the file has to have one of the extensions you list. In your
upload processor, use 'get upload extension' to check the extension
and reject the upload if it doesn't conform.
There is really no reason to support more than .doc, .rtf, .txt, .wps
and .pdf for uploaded resumes, because other than those (and perhaps
one or two more) there isn't much guarantee that the prospective
employer will have an application that will read it.
That's what I do for a site I did where resumes are uploaded. No one
is complaining.
