There's MIME-type detection using "magic numbers" available through:
http://uk2.php.net/mime_content_type
This does a quick check against the first few bytes of the file to see if it
matches up with various file formats.
It won't catch the second one, because that's still a valid HTML page - it may
have PHP errors on it, but they're in HTML.
