Hi Helmut, tobago utilises commons-fileUpload and for the contentType FileItem.getContentType(): http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/apidocs/org/apache/commons/fileupload/FileItem.html#getContentType()
from this doc i think the uploading browser must set the contenttype properly for this to work. Regards, Volker 2007/5/24, Helmut Swaczinna <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi, what mechanism/tool uses tc:validateFileItem to determine the MIME-Type of the uploaded file to check the specified contentType? I want to restrict the file upload to Excel files but it doesn't recognize the upload file as an Excel file. Regards Helmut
