How to define your own MIME Typ - SirTom - 05-01-2017
Is it possible to define my own MIME Typ?
I use CodeIgniter’s File Uploading Class. Can I specify my own mime type to control what is allowed to be upload. The Type is *.lpo and this is a customized database, like *.mdb.
Thanks for your help!
Tom

Do you mean something like this?
PHP Code:
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|lpo';
In the docs in preferences:
https://www.codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/file_uploading.html#preferences
There is some other stuff about mime types like mod_mime_fix and detect_mime but have never had need to use or refer to them.
Best wishes,
Paul
