Is there a good reference site that lists correct MIME types for
various file formats? or is there a general rule to follow for
non-standard file types?
Specifically I'd like to know what MIME type should be used for SPSS
portable (.por) files and in the past I've seen many variants for some
file types (eg. MS office file types). Currently we are sending the
MIME type application/por which I am fairly certain is incorrect, but
it does give the browser behaviour that we want.
Without the MIME type set the file displays like a text file in the
browser window, however we want the download requestor to appear when
accessing a file of this type as the file is useless when viewed as
straight text as it is a data file designed to be used with SPSS.
