read mime type of the file

[eluser]Skuja[/eluser]
hi, i want to read mime type of an audio file. I tried following functions: mime_content_type and finfo_file, but it turns out that neither magic_mime or fileinfo modules are installed on my hosting server. Is there any other safe way to check file type or should I contact my host to enable one of these modules?

That information should be obtainable via the $_FILES array - $_FILES['field_name']['type']

I was not trying to upload these files.. they already were stored there, but thanks for your help TheFuzzy0ne.
I already contacted hosting company and they installed fileinfo module for me.

Great stuff. My Web host aren't that nice...

Sorry for missing the fact that you weren't uploading the file.
