How to get MIME type of a file in PHP 5.5?

Question

I am using mime_content_type() in PHP 5.5 to get a MIME type, but it throws fatal: error function not found.

How can I achieve this on PHP

Answer 1

Get the image size using:

$infFil=getimagesize($the_file_name);

and

echo $infFil["mime"]

The getimagesize returns an associative array which have a MIME key and obviously the image size too

I used it and it works
