This topic lists the most common MIME types with corresponding document types, ordered by their common extensions.
The following two important MIME types are the default types:
text/plain is the default value for textual files. A textual file should be human-readable and must not contain binary data.application/octet-stream is the default value for all other cases. An unknown file type should use this type. Browsers are particularly careful when manipulating these files to protect users from software vulnerabilities and possible dangerous behavior.IANA is the official registry of MIME media types and maintains a list of all the official MIME types. This table lists important MIME types for the Web:

You can assign a specific MIME type to a file with .xml extension depending on how its contents are meant to be interpreted. For instance, an Atom feed is application/atom+xml, but application/xml serves as a valid default. .xul XUL application/vnd.mozilla.xul+xml .zip ZIP archive application/zip. Note, Windows uploads .zip files with the non-standard MIME type application/x-zip-compressed. .3gp 3GPP audio/video container video/3gpp; audio/3gpp if it doesn't contain video .3g2 3GPP2 audio/video container video/3gpp2; audio/3gpp2 if it doesn't contain video .7z 7-zip archive application/x-7z-compressed
