OK. My best guess is that Zope uses mime types to do this, but that is a wild guess. On Fri, Jun 29, 2001 at 04:04:54PM +0200, Robert Rottermann wrote:

Martin, Thank you for your answer. Unfortunately I did not tell what I want correctly. I actually would like to add an other filetype to be recognized by CMF. I assumed that when I am told how to read the the Imgtype would give me a clue where to finde the code within CMF. However imgheader is not used in Zope. So if you have an other Typ maybe?

The refference for Python 1.5.2 mentions imghdr in section 14.9 which looks like it can do what you want. It can identify the most common file formats, but also include hook for extension. I have never tried using it, but remembered it when I saw you post. On Fri, Jun 29, 2001 at 01:37:38PM +0200, Robert Rottermann wrote:

Hi there, I would like to test of what type an image is. How can I do that? I think I saw some code once but can not find it anymor.

Thanks for your tips Robert
