You can easily check mime type of an internet resource using this code :

<?php
function getUrlMimeType($url) {
   
$buffer = file_get_contents($url);
   
$finfo = new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE);
    return
$finfo->buffer($buffer);
}
?>

I'm using it to detect if an url given by a user is a HTML page (so I do some stuff with the HTML) or a file on Internet (so I show an icon accordingly to the mime type).

You should never rely on finfo::buffer to get the MimeType of a file, you must always save the file physically or temporariliy and use finfo_open to get MimeType. I tested it with an excell file, with buffer it says octet-stream that is not valid, with finfo_open it says ms-excell as correct.

Get only a webpage content type and forget the charset

<?php
$file
= new finfo(FILEINFO_MIME);
echo
strstr($file->buffer(file_get_contents('http://example.com')),';',true)//Returns something similar to  text/html
?>
