Default mime types

Class Public methods
dequote(str)

Removes quotes and escapes from str

# File lib/webrick/httputils.rb, line 220
def dequote(str)
  ret = (/\A"(.*)"\Z/ =~ str) ? $1 : str.dup
  ret.gsub!(/\(.)/, "\\1")
  ret
end
load_mime_types(file)

Loads Apache-compatible mime.types in file.

# File lib/webrick/httputils.rb, line 108
def load_mime_types(file)
  open(file){ |io|
    hash = Hash.new
    io.each{ |line|

    }
    hash
  }
end
mime_type(filename, mime_tab)

  while ret.sub!(%r/\.(?:/|\Z)', '/'); end  # /.      => /
  while ret.sub!(%r/(?!\.\./)[^/]+/\.\.(?:/|\Z)', '/'); end # /foo/.. => /foo

  raise "abnormal path `#{path}'" if %r{/\.\.(/|\Z)} =~ ret
