It looks like mod_ext_filter sets the last-modified http header based on
the mod time of the *filter* file and not the actual file represented by
the URL.
eg.
the following filter is configured in httpd.conf
ExtFilterDefine filter-name mode=output intype=text/html outtype=text/html \
cmd="/web_home/filters/filter.pl"
<Directory "/web_home/htdocs">
SetOutputFilter filter-name
[etc...]
now, if you try to get the following url:
http://server/file.html
the Last-Modified HTTP header seems to be set based on the timestamp on
"/web_home/filters/filter.pl" and NOT on "/web_home/htdocs/file.html"
i was hoping that this would be an easy fix for someone a lot more
familiar with the code.
i do understand that this may change the current behavior of existing apps
that use mod_ext_filter... so, comments are welcomed...
tia!
