Types Accepted by "file" HTML Input Element's Preexisting MIME Types

Question

I am curious if there's a list of valid image types (essentially extensions) accepted by using image/* for an input's accept attribute. Example:

<input type="file" accept="image/*">

What extensions would be valid for this? Likewise, for the other two, audio/* and video/*. Thank you!

Answer 1

Here is the way you can allow different filetypes for accept attribute.

<input type="file" accept="image/jpeg,image/gif,image/png" />

Same way you can allow audio and video files as well.

Follow this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIME_type

You can check which filetypes are allowed.
