I'm using location because I want all HTTP content provided from a particular URL context to be filtered, regardless of where it maps to on the filesystem, possibly with the same content being filtered in two different ways depending on how it's accessed. Also, some of the content which I want to be filtered comes from CGI scripts which sit outside the document root, so explicitly mapping each of those with a <Directory> section would be cumbersome and pointless (if, indeed, it would even work - I've not checked). > What happens if you use <Directory>? And what happens if you use > FilterProvider/FilterChain in place of SetOutputFilter? I can't test this yet, since they're only available in mod_filter from 2.1 onwards and (due to OS packaging lagging behind the times) I'm stuck with 2.0.55 for now. That looks like a much better framework, though: thanks for pointing it out! > Also, that kind of extfilter usage is massively inefficient. Use > mod_line_edit. That was a demo! I have no real-world interest in replacing "foo" with "bar" (but I do have an interest in applying e.g. uniform, dynamic headers and footers to all the content on my site without having to worry about the languages/proxies/etc. that each bit is implemented with, which is what this is really all about.) Thanks for the comments, though, especially the pointer at FilterChains etc. I still think this is a bug, though: I'm not convinced that the argument about local content applies here. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
