Multimedia Formats
多媒体格式

Multimedia elements (like sounds or videos) are stored in media files.
多媒体元素（如声音和视频）是被存储于多媒体文件中的。

The most common way to discover the media type is to look at the file extension.
如果你想知道多媒体的格式，那么最简单的方法就是查看它的扩展名。

When a browser sees the file extensions .htm or .html, it will assume that the file is an HTML page. The .xml extension indicates an XML file, and the .css extension indicates a style sheet.
当一个浏览器看到“.htm” 或 “.html” 这样的扩展名之后，它将自认为文件是HTML页面。“.xml” 扩展名意指XML文件，“.css” 意指样式表。

Picture formats are recognized by extensions like .gif and .jpg.
“.gif” 和 “.jpg” 意指图片格式。

Multimedia elements also have their own file formats with different extensions.
多媒体元素同样拥有不同的扩展名。
