There is no "magic" way to reliably identify such files. Your best bet is to use a module which can fall back to looking at the filename extension if magic doesn't come up with anything useful, eg File::MimeInfo.

File::MimeInfo. File::MMagic can and does (optionally) use file extensions and/or regular expression checks as well as magic; it's just that there is no built-in test for CSS or Javascript. See the manual entries for addSpecials and addFileExts for how to extend this yourself.
