Category: libcurl
Group: wrong behaviour
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Priority: 5
Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody)
Assigned to: Daniel Stenberg (bagder)
Summary: Guessed Content-Type invalid

Initial Comment:
libcurl has an internal list for content-types which it
uses unless specified otherwise. This is in
ContentTypeForFilename() in lib/formdata.c.

.html becomes text/plain which is wrong

The list is limited to gifs and jpegs and default is
text/plain, which imo should be binary/octet-stream or
something.

I would suggest adding a few more extensins (postscript
for instance), or use the systems mime-type database
(/etc/mime.type) if possible
