Content Type Modules

The module type constant for content-type modules is MODULE_TYPES.

array(string|int) type_from_extension(string ext)

Return an array ({ content_type, content_encoding }) devised from the file extension 'ext'. When 'ext' equals "default", Roxen wants to know a default type/encoding. If the content-type returned is the string "strip", the content-encoding returned will be kept, and another call be made for the last-but-one file extension to get the content type (eg for ".tar.gz" to resolve correctly).
