<p>The directives <a class="directive" href="#addcharset"><code class="directive">AddCharset</code></a>, <a class="directive" href="#addencoding"><code class="directive">AddEncoding</code></a>, <a class="directive" href="#addlanguage"><code class="directive">AddLanguage</code></a> and <a class="directive" href="#addtype"><code class="directive">AddType</code></a> are all used to map file
extensions onto the meta-information for that file. Respectively
they set the character set, content-encoding, content-language,
- and MIME-type (content-type) of documents.</p>
-
- <p>In addition, <code><a href="mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> may define the "handler"
- for a document, which controls what module or script will serve
- the document. With the introduction of "filters" in Apache 2.0,
- <code><a href="mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> can also define the filters that the the
- content should be processed through (e.g. the Includes output
- filter for server side scripting) and what filters the client
- request and POST content should be processed through (the input
- filters.)</p>
-
- <p>The directives <a class="directive" href="#addhandler"><code class="directive">AddHandler</code></a>, <a class="directive" href="#addoutputfilter"><code class="directive">AddOutputFilter</code></a>, and <a class="directive" href="#addinputfilter"><code class="directive">AddInputFilter</code></a> control the modules
+ and MIME-type (content-type) of documents. The directive <a class="directive" href="#typesconfig"><code class="directive">TypesConfig</code></a> is used to specify a
+ file which also maps extensions onto MIME types. </p>
+
+ <p>In addition, <code><a href="mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> may define the <a href="../handler.html">handler</a> and <a href="../filter.html">filters</a> that originate and process
+ content. The directives <a class="directive" href="#addhandler"><code class="directive">AddHandler</code></a>, <a class="directive" href="#addoutputfilter"><code class="directive">AddOutputFilter</code></a>, and <a class="directive" href="#addinputfilter"><code class="directive">AddInputFilter</code></a> control the modules
or scripts that serve the document. The <a class="directive" href="#multiviewsmatch"><code class="directive">MultiviewsMatch</code></a> directive allows
<code><a href="mod_negotiation.html">mod_negotiation</a></code> to consider these file extensions
to included when testing Multiviews matches.</p>
- <p>The directive <a class="directive" href="#typesconfig"><code class="directive">TypesConfig</code></a> is used to specify a
- file which also maps extensions onto MIME types. Most
- administrators use the provided mime.types file which associates
- common filename extensions with IANA registered content types. The
- current list is maintained at
- <code>http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/media-types</code>. This
- simplifies the <code>httpd.conf</code> file by providing the
- majority of media-type definitions, and they may be overridden by
- <a class="directive" href="#addtype"><code class="directive">AddType</code></a> directives as
- needed.</p>
-
- <blockquote><table><tr><td bgcolor="#e0e5f5">Please do not send requests to the Apache httpd Project
- to add any new entries in the distributed mime.types file
- unless (1) they are already registered with IANA, and (2) they
- use widely accepted, non-conflicting filename extensions across
- platforms. category/x-subtype requests will be automatically
- rejected, as will any new two-letter extensions as they will
- likely conflict later with the already crowded language and
- character set namespace.</td></tr></table></blockquote>
-
- <p>The core directives <a class="directive" href="core.html#forcetype"><code class="directive">ForceType</code></a> and <a class="directive" href="core.html#sethandler"><code class="directive">SetHandler</code></a> are used to associate all the
- files in a given container (<em>e.g.</em>, <a class="directive" href="core.html#location"><code class="directive"><location></code></a>, <a class="directive" href="core.html#director"><code class="directive"><director></code></a>, or <a class="directive" href="core.html#files"><code class="directive"><Files></code></a>) with a particular
- MIME-type or handler. These settings override any filename
- extension mappings defined in <code><a href="mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code>.</p>
+ <p>While <code><a href="mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> associates meta-information
+ with filename extensions, the <code><a href="core.html">core</a></code> server
+ provides directives that are used to associate all the files in a

+ <p>The TypesConfig directive sets the location of the MIME types
+ configuration file. <em>Filename</em> is relative to the <a href="core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a>. This file sets the
+ default list of mappings from filename extensions to content
+ types. Most administrators use the provided
+ <code>mime.types</code> file, which associates common filename
+ extensions with IANA registered content types. The current list is
+ maintained at
+ <code>http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/media-types/media-types</code>. This
+ simplifies the <code>httpd.conf</code> file by providing the
+ majority of media-type definitions, and may be overridden by
+ <a class="directive" href="#addtype"><code class="directive">AddType</code></a> directives as
