背景介绍
多用途互联网邮件扩展,它是一个互联网标准,在1992年最早应用于电子邮件系统,但后来也应用到浏览器。服务器会将它们发送的多媒体数据的类型告诉浏览器,而通知手段就是说明该多媒体数据的MIME类型,从而让浏览器知道接收到的信息哪些是MP3文件,哪些是Shockwave文件等等。服务器将MIME标志符放入传送的数据中来告诉浏览器使用哪种插件读取相关文件。
MIME能够支持非ASCII字符、二进制格式附件等多种格式的邮件消息。这个标准被定义在RFC 2045,RFC 2046,RFC 2047,RFC 2048,RFC 2049等RFC中。 由RFC 822转变而来的RFC 2822,规定电子邮件标准并不允许在邮件消息中使用7位ASCII字符集以外的字符。正因如此,一些非英语字符消息和二进制文件,图像,声音等非文字消息都不能在电子邮件中传输。MIME规定了用于表示各种各样的数据类型的符号化方法。
浏览器接收到文件后,会进入插件系统进行查找,查找出哪种插件可以识别读取接收到的文件。如果浏览器不清楚调用哪种插件系统,它可能会告诉用户缺少某插件,或者直接选择某现有插件来试图读取接收到的文件,或者可能会导致系统的崩溃。传输的信息中缺少MIME标识可能导致的情况很难估计,因为某些计算机系统可能不会出现什么故障,但某些计算机可能就会因此而崩溃。
检查一个服务器是否正确设置了MIME类型的步骤是:
在Netscape浏览器中打开服务器网页。
进入"Tools"菜单,选择"Page Info"。
在弹出的窗口中点击上层框架中的"EMBED"。
在下层框架中查看MIME的类型是否为"application/x-director"或"application/x-shockwave-flash",如果是上述信息的话表明服务器已经正确设置了MIME类型;而如果MIME类型列出的是文本内容、八位一组的数据或是其它形式均表明服务器的MIME类型没有设置正确。
如果服务器没有正确标明其发送的数据的类型,服务器管理员应该正确添加相关信息,具体操作方法非常简单快捷。
Microsoft公司应用于Windows系统下的浏览器使用ActiveX控件,而不是Netscape插件,这种浏览器不必象其它浏览器那样依靠MIME的编码。"OBJECT"标签的"CLSID"属性准确地标明了应调用哪种程序来读取接收到的文件,因此浏览器不必象"EMBED"标签那样选择一种读取程序。正因为如此,你往往会在使用带插件的浏览器时遇到MIME问题,而使用ActiveX控件的浏览器则很少出现此类麻烦。
正由于上述工作方式的差别也解释了一种现象,不知你是否发现在使用Netscape浏览器播放WAV文件时,浏览器会调用LiveConnect插件进行播放,而其它浏览器一般都使用通用的QuickTime的播放插件等来进行播放,这是因为Netscape浏览器接收文件需要读取MIME标识符,以便决定调用哪种程序来读取接收的文件,而服务器设置在Netscape浏览器中播放WAV文件应使用LiveConnect插件,因此Netscape浏览器接收到WAV格式的文件时必然就会调用LiveConnect插件,但由于其它浏览器不使用这种方式,因此它们都使用系统默认的播放WAV格式文件的播放器。当然Flash电影文件并不存在这种问题,因为只有Flash播放器才能够正确读取这种格式的文件。
在把输出结果传送到浏览器上的时候,浏览器必须启动适当的应用程序来处理这个输出文档。这可以通过多种类型MIME(多功能网际邮件扩充协议)来完成。在HTTP中,MIME类型被定义在Content-Type header中。
例如,假设你要传送一个Microsoft Excel文件到客户端。那么这时的MIME类型就是“excel”。在大多数实际情况中,这个文件然后将传送给Excel来处理(假设我们设定Excel为处理特殊MIME类型的应用程序)。在ASP中,设定MIME类型的方法是通过Response对象的ContentType属性。
文件格式
最早的HTTP协议中,并没有附加的数据类型信息,所有传送的数据都被客户程序解释为超文本标记语言HTML 文档,而为了支持多媒体数据类型,HTTP协议中就使用了附加在文档之前的MIME数据类型信息来标识数据类型。
MIME意为多功能Internet邮件扩展,它设计的最初目的是为了在发送电子邮件时附加多媒体数据,让邮件客户程序能根据其类型进行处理。然而当它被HTTP协议支持之后,它的意义就更为显著了。它使得HTTP传输的不仅是普通的文本,而变得丰富多彩。
每个MIME类型由两部分组成,前面是数据的大类别,例如声音audio、图象image等,后面定义具体的种类。
七种大类别:
VIdeo
image
application
text
audio
multipart
message
常见的MIME类型(通用型):
超文本标记语言文本 .html text/html
xml文档 .xml text/xml
XHTML文档 .xhtml application/xhtml+xml
普通文本 .txt text/plain
RTF文本 .rtf application/rtf
PDF文档 .pdf application/pdf
Microsoft Word文件 .word application/msword
PNG图像 .png image/png
GIF图形 .gif image/gif
JPEG图形 .jpeg,.jpg image/jpeg
au声音文件 .au audio/basic
MIDI音乐文件 mid,.midi audio/midi,audio/x-midi
RealAudio音乐文件 .ra, .ram audio/x-pn-realaudio
MPEG文件 .mpg,.mpeg video/mpeg
AVI文件 .avi video/x-msvideo
GZIP文件 .gz application/x-gzip
TAR文件 .tar application/x-tar
任意的二进制数据 application/octet-stream
Internet中有一个专门组织IANA来确认标准的MIME类型,但Internet发展的太快,很多应用程序等不及IANA来确认他们使用的MIME类型为标准类型。因此他们使用在类别中以x-开头的方法标识这个类别还没有成为标准,例如:x-gzip,x-tar等。事实上这些类型运用的很广泛,已经成为了事实标准。只要客户机和服务器共同承认这个MIME类型,即使它是不标准的类型也没有关系,客户程序就能根据MIME类型,采用具体的处理手段来处理数据。而Web服务器和浏览器(包括操作系统)中,缺省都设置了标准的和常见的MIME类型,只有对于不常见的 MIME类型,才需要同时设置服务器和客户浏览器,以进行识别。
由于MIME类型与文档的后缀相关,因此服务器使用文档的后缀来区分不同文件的MIME类型,服务器中必须定义文档后缀和MIME类型之间的对应关系。而客户程序从服务器上接收数据的时候,它只是从服务器接受数据流,并不了解文档的名字,因此服务器必须使用附加信息来告诉客户程序数据的MIME类型。服务器在发送真正的数据之前,就要先发送标志数据的MIME类型的信息,这个信息使用Content-type关键字进行定义,例如对于HTML文档,服务器将首先发送以下两行MIME标识信息,这个标识并不是真正的数据文件的一部分。
Content-type: text/html
注意,第二行为一个空行,这是必须的,使用这个空行的目的是将MIME信息与真正的数据内容分隔开。
MIME利用了一个事实就是,RFC 822在消息体的内容中做了一点限制:唯一的限制就是只能使用简单的ASCII文本。所以,MIME信息由正常的Internet文本邮件组成,文本邮件拥有一些特别的符合RFC 822的信息头和格式化过的信息体(用ASCII 的子集来表示的附件)。这些MIME头给出了一种在邮件中表示附件的特别的方法。
信息剖析
一个普通的文本邮件的信息包含一个头(header)部分(To: From: Subject: 等等)和一个体(body)部分(Hello Mr.,等等)。在一个符合MIME的信息中,也包含一个信息头并不奇怪,邮件的各个部分叫做MIME段,每段前也缀以一个特别的头。MIME邮件只是基于RFC 822邮件的一个扩展,然而它有着自己的RFC规范集。
头字段
MIME头根据在邮件包中的位置,大体上分为MIME信息头和MIME段头。(译者:MIME信息头指整个邮件的头,而MIME段头指每个MIME段的头。)
MIME信息头有:
MIME-Version:
这个头提供了所用MIME的版本号。这个值习惯上为1.0。
Content-Type:
它定义了数据的类型,以便数据能被适当地处理。有效的类型有:text,image,audio,video,application,multipart和message。注意任何一个二进制附件都应该被叫做application/octet- stream。这个头的一些用例为:image/jpg, application/mswork,multipart/mixed,这只是很少的一部分。
Content-Transfer-Encoding:
这是所有头中最重要的一个,因为它说明了对数据所执行的编码方式,客户/MUA 将用它对附件进行解码。对于每个附件,可以使用7bit,8bit,binary ,quoted-printable,base64和custom中的一种编码方式。7bit编码是用在US ASCII字符集上的常用的一种编码方式,也就是,保持它的原样。8bit和binary编码一般不用。对人类可读的标准文本,如果传输要经过对格式有影响的网关时对其进行保护,可以使用quoted printable 。Base64是一种通用方法,在需要决定使用哪一种编码方法时,它提供了一个不用费脑子的选择;它通常用在二进制,非文本数据上。注意,任何非7bit 数据必须用一种模式编码,这样它就可以通过Internet邮件网关!
Content-ID:
如果Content-Type是message/external-body或multipart/alternative时,这个头就有用了,它超出了本文的范围。
Content-Description:
这是一个可选的头。它是任何信息段内容的自由文本描述。描述必须使用us-ascii码。
Content-Disposition:
一个试验性的头,它用于给客户程序/MUA提供提示,来决定是否在行内显示附件或作为单独的附件。
MIME段头(出现在实际的MIME附件部分的头),除了MIME-Version头,可以拥有以上任何头字段。如果一个MIME头是信息块的一部分,它将作用于整个信息体。例如,如果Content-Transfer-Encoding显示在信息(指整个信息)头中,它应用于整个信息体,但是如果它显示在一个MIME段里,它"只能"用于那个段中。
注意:其可以对自动对收到的邮件进行解密。

传输编码
内容传输编码(Content-Transfer-Encoding),这个区域使指定ASCII以外的字符编码方式成为可能。形式如下:
Content-Transfer-Encoding: [mechanism]
其中,mechanism的值可以指定为“7bit”,“8bit”,“binary”,“quoted-printable”,“base64”。
7bit
7bit这里指的是7位的ASCII编码方式。
8bit
8位元ASCII码。
binary
quoted-printable
因为欧洲的一些文字和ASCII字符集中的某些字符有部分相同。如果邮件消息使用的是这些语言的话,于ASCII重叠的那些字符可以原样使用,ASCII字符集中不存在的字符采用形如“=??”的方法编码。这里“??”需要用将字符编码后的16进制数字来指定。采用quoted-printable编码的消息,长度不会变得太长,而且大部分都是ASCII中的字符,即使不通过解码也大致可以读懂消息的内容。
base64
base64是一种将二进制的01序列转化成ASCII字符的编码方法。编码后的文本或者二进制消息,就可以运用SMTP等只支持ASCII字符的协议传送了。Base64一般被认为会平均增加33%的报文长度,而且,经过编码的消息对于人类来说是不可读的。
x-encodingname
这个值是预留的扩展。
