What are MIME Types?
MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) types are a standard way of indicating the nature and format of a file. They are used by web servers to tell browsers how to handle files.
MIME Type Structure
A MIME type consists of a type and subtype separated by a slash: type/subtype. For example, image/jpeg indicates a JPEG image.
