On Apache, it _is_ done by filename.  Since the host has to "chmod" the 
files to make them executable (on *NIX), it probably automagically does 
this on a specific set of file extensions.  so you need to find out what 
extensions are supported.

I am not telling you to do this, but you could theoretically upload an 
executable binary called andy.pl

Or BSD, or Solaris, or AIX... and the CPU architecture.
