8.2.4. Setting MIME Types with Perl
In Perl, the following line of code is used to set the MIME type of a document:
print "Content-type: mimeType\n\n";
The above Perl code adds the Content-type HTTP header to the HTTP response. There are two newline characters at the end since a blank line is used to mark the end of the HTTP header.
The following example demonstrates how to set the MIME type of a document to "application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml" using Perl:
print
"Content-type: application/vnd.wap.xhtml+xml\n\n";
print
"<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n";
print
"<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile
