It might help to read the API for the classes that contain "mime" or "mimetype" or "filetype" directly in the classname.

Thanks for your responses!!

I'm using jdk 1.5 and the compiler doesn't recognize the javax.activation.MimetypesFileTypeMap class. Can I use it with jdk 1.5?

Did you read the page? Have you downloaded the activation jar? Do you have it on you classpath?
