35 <p>This module provides the handler <code>send-as-is</code>
36 which causes Apache to send the document without adding most of
37 the usual HTTP headers.</p>
39 <p>This can be used to send any kind of data from the server,
40 including redirects and other special HTTP responses, without
41 requiring a cgi-script or an nph script.</p>
43 <p>For historical reasons, this module will also process any
44 file with the mime type <code>httpd/send-as-is</code>.</p>

60 <h2><a name="usage" id="usage">Usage</a></h2>
62 <p>In the server configuration file, associate files with the
63 <code>send-as-is</code> handler <em>e.g.</em></p>
65 <div class="example"><p><code>AddHandler send-as-is asis</code></p></div>
67 <p>The contents of any file with a <code>.asis</code> extension
68 will then be sent by Apache to the client with almost no
69 changes. In particular, HTTP headers are derived from the file
70 itself according to <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code> rules, so an asis
71 file must include valid headers, and may also use the CGI
72 Status: header to determine the HTTP response code.</p>
74 <p>Here's an example of a file whose contents are sent <em>as
75 is</em> so as to tell the client that a file has
79 <div class="example"><p><code>
80 Status: 301 Now where did I leave that URL<br />
81 Location: http://xyz.abc.com/foo/bar.html<br />
82 Content-type: text/html<br />
86 <title>Lame excuses'R'us</title><br />
89 <h1>Fred's exceptionally wonderful page has moved to<br />
90 <a href="http://xyz.abc.com/foo/bar.html">Joe's</a>
97 <div class="note"><h3>Notes:</h3>
98 <p>The server always adds a <code>Date:</code> and <code>Server:</code>
99 header to the data returned to the client, so these should not be
100 included in the file. The server does <em>not</em> add a
101 <code>Last-Modified</code> header; it probably should.</p>
