Hi, i've tested Apache Content Negotiation with a PHP Content Managment System. Apache works correctly, but doesn't tell PHP what it has done.
Example: I have a directory with two files: - test.de.htm - test.en.htm As Apache is configured for Content Negotiation I can enter "test" in my browser window and get the best suiting page, in my case the test.de.htm. But before I see the htm page, it is parsed by the CMS, using Apache Action AddType application/x-httpd-parse .htm Action application/x-httpd-parse "/parser/parser.php?file=" Well, now the problem: As I make a HTTP request for "test", Apache negotiates for "test.de.htm", starts the parser.php as ActionHandler for this .htm file. But PHP doesn't know about the new requested document as there is nothing changed in the original request. Apache writes a *RESPONSE* header (Content-Location: test.de.htm), but PHP does know the Apache response headers only after all PHP generated headers are sent. When I call apache_response_headers() at the beginning of my script, it show's nothing from Apache, if I run it after all my header() calls are done and i've sent the first content data, I can see the Apache Response headers, especially "Content-Location:". So I see no way to know about Content Negotiation of Apache before all PHP headers are sent. *But I do need this* Why can't PHP just show all the Apache Response headers immediately ??? This is very important and I think also for many people who have dealt with PHP and Apache Content Negotiation. Please help!
