We're using Struts 2 for file uploading, and we're filtering the types of files people can upload by checking the file's content type against a list of allowed mime types.

This turns out not to be reliable enough. Firefox in particular seems to sometimes provide the wrong mime type, so some valid files are being rejected.

My question is: has anyone come across a reliable way to detect a file's mime type?

Thanks,
Steve
