Straw-man again. Supporting resource forks doesn't mean that you fail to support single-forked files, your "lowest common denominator" format. It just means you aren't _limited_ to them.

There are industry-wide standards for dealing with forked files (AppleSingle/AppleDouble), and these standards include "magic cookie" values for identification by alien filesystems. Every competent webserver package supports and recognizes applesingle/appledouble.

I believe you mean every competent webserver package supports MIME, which has types for Applesingle/Appledouble.
