Adding new MIME types for the CLI web server

Hi,

FYI that's not the correct mime type for mp4 -
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4337.txt

The exact mime type depends on the content of the file, but
'video/mp4' would be more appropriate than 'video/mpeg'.

cheers

For PHP 5.5.5 CLI web server I added the .pdf MIME type. I was using
the webserver for a conference exhibition hall demo and needed to
present a PDF.

Some other multi-media types could be useful in future situations, and
in general. I'm thinking of adding these to PHP 5.5.6 & master:

   { "avi",  "video/x-msvideo" },
   { "flv",  "video/x-flv" },
   { "swf",  "application/x-shockwave-flash" },
   { "qt",   "video/quicktime" },
   { "mov",  "video/quicktime" },
   { "mp3",  "audio/mpeg" },
   { "mp4",  "video/mpeg" },
   { "mpg",  "video/mpeg" },
   { "mpeg", "video/mpeg" },
   { "wav",  "audio/wav" },

Notes:

• A router can be used to add to, or override, the MIME type lookups,
  see http://php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php

• The web server code does a linear lookup through the MIME table,
  defaulting on failure to returning "application/octet-stream".

I had feedback from one person who suggested adding these:

     { "3gp", "video/3gpp" },    //This is standard video format used for MMS in phones
     { "apk", "application/vnd.android.package-archive" },
     { "avi", "video/x-msvideo" },
     { "bmp", "image/x-ms-bmp" },
     { "csv", "text/comma-separated-values" },
     { "doc", "application/msword" },
     { "docx", "application/msword" },
     { "flac", "audio/flac" },
     { "gz",  "application/x-gzip" },
     { "gzip", "application/x-gzip" },
     { "ics", "text/calendar" },
     { "kml", "application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml" },
     { "kmz", "application/vnd.google-earth.kmz" },
     { "m4a", "audio/mp4" },
     { "mp3", "audio/mpeg" },
     { "mp4", "video/mp4" },
     { "mpg", "video/mpeg" },
     { "mpeg", "video/mpeg" },
     { "mov", "video/quicktime" },
     { "odp", "application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.presentation" },
     { "ods", "application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet" },
     { "odt", "application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text" },
     { "oga", "audio/ogg" },
     { "pdf", "application/pdf" },
     { "pptx", "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint" },
     { "pps", "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint" },
     { "qt", "video/quicktime" },
     { "swf", "application/x-shockwave-flash" },
     { "tar", "application/x-tar" },
     { "text", "text/plain" },
     { "tif", "image/tiff" },
     { "wav", "audio/wav" },
     { "wmv", "video/x-ms-wmv" },
     { "xls", "application/vnd.ms-excel" },
     { "xlsx", "application/vnd.ms-excel" },
     { "zip", "application/x-zip-compressed"

The PHP CLI web server 5.5 currrently supports these MIME types natively:

{ "html", "text/html" },
{ "htm", "text/html" },
{ "js", "text/javascript" },
{ "css", "text/css" },
{ "gif", "image/gif" },
{ "jpg", "image/jpeg" },
{ "jpeg", "image/jpeg" },
{ "jpe", "image/jpeg" },
{ "png", "image/png" },
{ "svg", "image/svg+xml" },
{ "txt", "text/plain" },
{ "webm", "video/webm" },
{ "ogv", "video/ogg" },
{ "ogg", "audio/ogg" },

Final comments anyone, before I commit next week?

Chris
