_x000D_ _x000D_ I have a file upload object on my page: with the following excel files on my desktop: file1.xlsx file1.xls file.csv I want the file upload to ONLY show .xlsx, .xls, & .csv files. Using the accept attribute, I found these content-types took care of .xlsx & .xls extensions... accept= application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet (.XLSX) accept= application/vnd.ms-excel (.XLS) However, I cannot find the correct content-type for an Excel CSV file! Any suggestions? EXAMPLE: http://jsfiddle.net/LzLcZ/

_x000D_ Well this is embarrassing... I found the solution I was looking for and it couldn't be simpler. I used the following code to get the desired result. Hope this helps someone in the future. Thanks everyone for your help. Valid Accept Types: For CSV files (.csv), use: For Excel Files 97-2003 (.xls), use: For Excel Files 2007+ (.xlsx), use: For Text Files (.txt) use: For Image Files (.png/.jpg/etc), use: For HTML Files (.htm,.html), use: For Video Files (.avi, .mpg, .mpeg, .mp4), use: For Audio Files (.mp3, .wav, etc), use: For PDF Files, use: DEMO: http://jsfiddle.net/dirtyd77/LzLcZ/144/ NOTE: If you are trying to display Excel CSV files (.csv), do NOT use: text/csv application/csv text/comma-separated-values (works in Opera only). If you are trying to display a particular file type (for example, a WAV or PDF), then this will almost always work...
