The following reply was made to PR mod_include/5300; it has been noted by GNATS.
From: Zoli Kiss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], apache-bugdb@apache.org Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: mod_include/5300: When server side includes are enabled paths such as: http://server/index.html/foo/foo/ are accepted. Date: Mon, 15 Nov 1999 18:40:29 -0800 (PST) I just realized that I incorrectly stated something in my previous note. Just to clarify: I don't understand why html pages would every require path info. If a URL: http://server/index.cgi/foo/foo/ is used, this is fine, but if a URL: http://server/index.html/foo/foo/ is used, why is this ever needed ? Would it make sense to check if the requested file is executable, and then make a decision on whether or not to return a page not found error ? I agree that I don't quite understand the need for this on regular html files, but I could not find any answers in the PR database.
