Specifying content type for file downloads

[Doug Chamberlin]

I'm using Tomcat 4.06 standalone and cannot find how to configure the 
server to properly identify downloaded files as Excel spreadsheets. I'm 
using links which look like:

<a href="https://webserver.com\Info\Docs\4211/SomeSpreadsheet.xls";>
  <b>SomeSpreadsheet.xls</b><br>
</a>
When the user clicks on the link the file is being displayed in the user's 
browser as garbage rather than having the browser display it via Excel.

I cannot find how to configure the server to properly identify these files 
as Excel spreadsheets.
