Comment

Determines which content types the client accepts. Acceptance is based on
the file extension parsed by the Router (if present), and by the HTTP_ACCEPT
header. Unlike CakeRequest::accepts() this method deals entirely with mapped content types.

Usage:

`$this->RequestHandler->accepts(array('xml', 'html', 'json'));`

Returns true if the client accepts any of the supplied types.

`$this->RequestHandler->accepts('xml');`

Returns true if the client accepts xml.

@param mixed $type Can be null (or no parameter), a string type name, or an
array of types
@return mixed If null or no parameter is passed, returns an array of content
types the client accepts. If a string is passed, returns true
if the client accepts it. If an array is passed, returns true
if the client accepts one or more elements in the array.
