How to tell if Mime type matches contents

[Ed Eichman]

Hi Everyone,

Before I write the script myself, I'm looking for PHP code that checks
that a link's content type matches it's contents. I need this for my
"broken link" checker script, which fails to spot the "broken" links
http://www.awin1.com/show.php?mid=10...6515&aid=49007 and
http://www.awin1.com/awclick.php?mid...36515&id=49007. Any
ideas?

BTW, in case the links get fixed before you read the message, the first
link is a GIF MIME that returns

[document.write( '<a
href="http://www.affiliatewi ndow.com/?id=.&banner=no "
target="_blank" ><img
src="http://www.awin1.com/show.php?mid=3& gid=14&aid=477& clickref=nobann er"
border="0"></a>')]

which displays as

[The image
"http://www.awin1.com/show.php?mid=10 14&linkid=36515 &aid=49007"
cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.] .

The second is a text/html that returns

[<br />
