Response.ContentType : ASP (Active Server Pages) : From Basic To Advance : Basic, Form To Mail, Remote Pages, Files And Folders, Examples of Scripts

In the examples bellow, by using Include/virtual the asp file will send us a file originally writen in html format. The way this response page is displayed will depent on the ContentType we have defined. You may click in the file names to see them working.

ContentTypeexample1.asp
<!--#include virtual="/examples/ContentType.asp" -->	The default option is used. The content of the file will be "text/html"
ContentTypeexample2.asp
<% response.ContentType ="text/html" %> <!--#include virtual="/examples/ContentType.asp" -->	ContentType is defined as "text/html" The result will be the same as above.
ContentTypeexample3.asp
<% response.ContentType ="text/plain" %> <!--#include virtual="/examples/ContentType.asp" -->	ContentType is defined as "text/plain" The file will be displayed as text. We will see the html source of the file.

Similarly we may set up ContentType in order to fit the file type.

There are may different content types we may used, but we have include bellow only a few ones. If you want to find more types, just check in preferences from your browser for helper applications defined for different file types.
