If you look at the top of cherrypy/lib/cptools.py you'll see something like: import mimetypes mimetypes.init() mimetypes.types_map['.dwg']='image/x-dwg' mimetypes.types_map['.ico']='image/x-icon' You can add your own registered types to that (somewhere in your own app): import mimetypes mimetypes.types_map['.xpi'] = 'application/x-xpinstall' ...or you could look at your platform's specific methods to register types, and let mimetypes.init() pick it up that way.
