content type
The content-type of a file or network message is a specific mapping between identifiers and data serialization (file) formats. The identifiers, which are registered with IANA, are used in operating systems and network protocols like e-mail and HTTP to determine what type of file or message is being accessed. This term is also used by content strategists to refer to categories (genres, formats) of documents.
