<cfcontent> to send any file type

I currently use this to serve a download

Is there a way to use this to serve any kind of file. This way I have to specify the file type, but it may change.

<cfcontent> to send any file type

Specify the file attribute, but leave out type attribute. That forces Coldfusion to make an intelligent guess for the type.

Um... well you could use a variable instead of hard-coding the MIME type?

Or am I not understanding what you're asking, because that sounds like too obvious a suggestion to me?
