As I understand it, enctype is looking for MIME types.
From MSDN


ENCTYPE Attribute | enctype Property Internet Development Index
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sets or retrieves the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) encoding for the form.
Syntax
HTML <FORM ENCTYPE = sType... >
Scripting FORM.enctype(v) [ = sType ]
Possible Values
sType String that specifies or receives the format of the data being submitted by the form.
The property is read/write. The property has a default value of application/x-www-form-urlencoded.
Remarks
The enctype property was introduced in Microsoft� Internet Explorer 6. If backwards compatibility is required, use the encoding property.
Internet Explorer also recognizes multipart/form-data, which, along with a POST method, is required to submit a file upload to the server.
Standards Information
This property is defined in HTML 3.2 and is defined in World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Document Object Model (DOM) Level 1 .
