| <h3>Summary</h3> |
| |
| <p>This module provides a filter which will process files |
| before they are sent to the client. The processing is |
| controlled by specially formatted SGML comments, referred to as |
| <dfn>elements</dfn>. These elements allow conditional text, the |
| inclusion of other files or programs, as well as the setting and |
| printing of environment variables.</p> |

| <h2><a name="enabling" id="enabling">Enabling Server-Side Includes</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| <p>Server Side Includes are implemented by the |
| <code>INCLUDES</code> <a href="../filter.html">filter</a>. If |
| documents containing server-side include directives are given |
| the extension .shtml, the following directives will make Apache |
| parse them and assign the resulting document the mime type of |
| <code>text/html</code>:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| AddType text/html .shtml<br /> |
| AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>The following directive must be given for the directories |
| containing the shtml files (typically in a |
| <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"><Directory></a></code> section, |
| but this directive is also valid in <code>.htaccess</code> files if |
| <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#allowoverride">AllowOverride</a></code> <code>Options</code> |
| is set):</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| Options +Includes |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>For backwards compatibility, the <code>server-parsed</code> |
| <a href="../handler.html">handler</a> also activates the |
| INCLUDES filter. As well, Apache will activate the INCLUDES |
| filter for any document with mime type |
| <code>text/x-server-parsed-html</code> or |
| <code>text/x-server-parsed-html3</code> (and the resulting |
| output will have the mime type <code>text/html</code>).</p> |
| |
| <p>For more information, see our <a href="../howto/ssi.html">Tutorial on Server Side Includes</a>.</p> |

| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="pathinfo" id="pathinfo">PATH_INFO with Server Side Includes</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| <p>Files processed for server-side includes no longer accept |
| requests with <code>PATH_INFO</code> (trailing pathname information) |
| by default. You can use the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#acceptpathinfo">AcceptPathInfo</a></code> directive to |
| configure the server to accept requests with <code>PATH_INFO</code>.</p> |
| </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="elements" id="elements">Basic Elements</a></h2> |
| <p>The document is parsed as an HTML document, with special |
| commands embedded as SGML comments. A command has the syntax: </p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#<var>element</var> <var>attribute</var>=<var>value</var> |
| <var>attribute</var>=<var>value</var> ... --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>The value will often be enclosed in double quotes, but single |
| quotes (<code>'</code>) and backticks (<code>`</code>) are also |
| possible. Many commands only allow a single attribute-value pair. |
| Note that the comment terminator (<code>--></code>) should be |
| preceded by whitespace to ensure that it isn't considered part of |
| an SSI token. The allowed elements are listed in the following |
| table:</p> |
| |
| <table class="bordered"> |
| <tr><th>Element</th><th>Description</th></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:config">config</a></code></td> |
| <td>configure output formats</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:echo">echo</a></code></td> |
| <td>print variables</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:exec">exec</a></code></td> |
| <td>execute external programs</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:fsize">fsize</a></code></td> |
| <td>print size of a file</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:flastmod">flastmod</a></code></td> |
| <td>print last modification time of a file</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:include">include</a></code></td> |
| <td>include a file</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:printenv">printenv</a></code></td> |
| <td>print all available variables</td></tr> |
| <tr><td><code><a href="#element:set">set</a></code></td> |
| <td>set a value of a variable</td></tr> |
| </table> |
| |
| <p>SSI elements may be defined by modules other than |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_include.html">mod_include</a></code>. In fact, the <code><a href="#element:exec">exec</a></code> element is provided by |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code>, and will only be available if this |
| module is loaded.</p> |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:config" id="element:config">The config Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This command controls various aspects of the parsing. The |
| valid attributes are:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>errmsg</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value is a message that is sent back to the |
| client if an error occurs while parsing the |
| document.</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>sizefmt</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value sets the format to be used which displaying |
| the size of a file. Valid values are <code>bytes</code> |
| for a count in bytes, or <code>abbrev</code> for a count |
| in Kb or Mb as appropriate, for example a size of 1024 bytes |
| will be printed as "1K".</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>timefmt</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value is a string to be used by the |
| <code>strftime(3)</code> library routine when printing |
| dates.</dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:echo" id="element:echo">The echo Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This command prints one of the <a href="#includevars">include |
| variables</a>, defined below. If the variable is unset, the result is |
| determined by the <code class="directive"><a href="#ssiundefinedecho">SSIUndefinedEcho</a></code> directive. Any dates printed are |
| subject to the currently configured <code>timefmt</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>Attributes:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>var</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value is the name of the variable to print.</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>encoding</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>Specifies how Apache should encode special characters |
| contained in the variable before outputting them. If set |
| to <code>none</code>, no encoding will be done. If set to |
| <code>url</code>, then URL encoding (also known as %-encoding; |
| this is appropriate for use within URLs in links, etc.) will be |
| performed. At the start of an <code>echo</code> element, |
| the default is set to <code>entity</code>, resulting in entity |
| encoding (which is appropriate in the context of a block-level |
| HTML element, <em>e.g.</em> a paragraph of text). This can be |
| changed by adding an <code>encoding</code> attribute, which will |
| remain in effect until the next <code>encoding</code> attribute |
| is encountered or the element ends, whichever comes first.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code>encoding</code> attribute must <em>precede</em> the |
| corresponding <code>var</code> attribute to be effective, and |
| only special characters as defined in the ISO-8859-1 character |
| encoding will be encoded. This encoding process may not have the |
| desired result if a different character encoding is in use.</p> |
| |
| <div class="warning"> |
| In order to avoid cross-site scripting issues, you should |
| <em>always</em> encode user supplied data. |
| </div> |
| </dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:exec" id="element:exec">The exec Element</a></h3> |
| <p>The <code>exec</code> command executes a given shell command or |
| CGI script. It requires <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_cgi.html">mod_cgi</a></code> to be present |
| in the server. If <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#options">Options</a></code> |
| <code>IncludesNOEXEC</code> is set, this command is completely |
| disabled. The valid attributes are:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>cgi</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The value specifies a (%-encoded) URL-path to |
| the CGI script. If the path does not begin with a slash (/), |
| then it is taken to be relative to the current |
| document. The document referenced by this path is |
| invoked as a CGI script, even if the server would not |
| normally recognize it as such. However, the directory |
| containing the script must be enabled for CGI scripts |
| (with <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> |
| or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#options">Options</a></code> |
| <code>ExecCGI</code>).</p> |
| |
| <p>The CGI script is given the <code>PATH_INFO</code> and query |
| string (<code>QUERY_STRING</code>) of the original request from the |
| client; these <em>cannot</em> be specified in the URL path. The |
| include variables will be available to the script in addition to |
| the standard <a href="mod_cgi.html">CGI</a> environment.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code> |
| <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/example.cgi" --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>If the script returns a <code>Location:</code> header instead of |
| output, then this will be translated into an HTML anchor.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code><a href="#includevirtual">include virtual</a></code> |
| element should be used in preference to <code>exec cgi</code>. In |
| particular, if you need to pass additional arguments to a CGI program, |
| using the query string, this cannot be done with <code>exec |
| cgi</code>, but can be done with <code>include virtual</code>, as |
| shown here:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/example.cgi?argument=value" --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| </dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>cmd</code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The server will execute the given string using |
| <code>/bin/sh</code>. The <a href="#includevars">include variables</a> are available to the command, in addition |
| to the usual set of CGI variables.</p> |
| |
| <p>The use of <code><a href="#includevirtual">#include virtual</a></code> is almost always prefered to using |
| either <code>#exec cgi</code> or <code>#exec cmd</code>. The former |
| (<code>#include virtual</code>) uses the standard Apache sub-request |
| mechanism to include files or scripts. It is much better tested and |
| maintained.</p> |
| |
| <p>In addition, on some platforms, like Win32, and on unix when |
| using <a href="../suexec.html">suexec</a>, you cannot pass arguments |
| to a command in an <code>exec</code> directive, or otherwise include |
| spaces in the command. Thus, while the following will work under a |
| non-suexec configuration on unix, it will not produce the desired |
| result under Win32, or when running suexec:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#exec cmd="perl /path/to/perlscript arg1 arg2" --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| </dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:fsize" id="element:fsize">The fsize Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This command prints the size of the specified file, subject |
| to the <code>sizefmt</code> format specification. Attributes:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>file</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value is a path relative to the directory |
| containing the current document being parsed.</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>virtual</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value is a (%-encoded) URL-path. If it does not begin with |
| a slash (/) then it is taken to be relative to the current document. |
| Note, that this does <em>not</em> print the size of any CGI output, |
| but the size of the CGI script itself.</dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:flastmod" id="element:flastmod">The flastmod Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This command prints the last modification date of the |
| specified file, subject to the <code>timefmt</code> format |
| specification. The attributes are the same as for the |
| <code><a href="#element:fsize">fsize</a></code> command.</p> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:include" id="element:include">The include Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This command inserts the text of another document or file |
| into the parsed file. Any included file is subject to the |
| usual access control. If the directory containing the |
| parsed file has <a href="core.html#options">Options</a> |
| <code>IncludesNOEXEC</code> set, then only documents with |
| a text MIME type (<code>text/plain</code>, <code>text/html</code> |
| etc.) will be included. Otherwise CGI scripts are invoked as normal |
| using the complete URL given in the command, including any query |
| string.</p> |
| |
| <p>An attribute defines the location of the document; the |
| inclusion is done for each attribute given to the include |
| command. The valid attributes are:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>file</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value is a path relative to the directory |
| containing the current document being parsed. It cannot |
| contain <code>../</code>, nor can it be an absolute path. |
| Therefore, you cannot include files that are outside of the |
| document root, or above the current document in the directory |
| structure. The <code>virtual</code> attribute should always be |
| used in preference to this one.</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code><a id="includevirtual" name="includevirtual">virtual</a></code></dt> |
| <dd><p>The value is a (%-encoded) URL-path. The URL cannot contain a |
| scheme or hostname, only a path and an optional query string. If it |
| does not begin with a slash (/) then it is taken to be relative to the |
| current document.</p> |
| |
| <p>A URL is constructed from the attribute, and the output the |
| server would return if the URL were accessed by the client is |
| included in the parsed output. Thus included files can be nested.</p> |
| |
| <p>If the specified URL is a CGI program, the program will be |
| executed and its output inserted in place of the directive in the |
| parsed file. You may include a query string in a CGI url:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/example.cgi?argument=value" --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p><code>include virtual</code> should be used in preference |
| to <code>exec cgi</code> to include the output of CGI programs |
| into an HTML document.</p> |
| </dd> |
| </dl> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:printenv" id="element:printenv">The printenv Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This prints out a listing of all existing variables and |
| their values. Special characters are entity encoded (see the <code><a href="#element:echo">echo</a></code> element for details) |
| before being output. There are no attributes.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code> |
| <!--#printenv --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| |
| <h3><a name="element:set" id="element:set">The set Element</a></h3> |
| <p>This sets the value of a variable. Attributes:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code>var</code></dt> |
| <dd>The name of the variable to set.</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code>value</code></dt> |
| <dd>The value to give a variable.</dd> |
| </dl> |
| |

| <h2><a name="substitution" id="substitution">Variable Substitution</a></h2> |
| |
| <p>Variable substitution is done within quoted strings in most |
| cases where they may reasonably occur as an argument to an SSI |
| directive. This includes the <code>config</code>, |
| <code>exec</code>, <code>flastmod</code>, <code>fsize</code>, |
| <code>include</code>, <code>echo</code>, and <code>set</code> |
| directives, as well as the arguments to conditional operators. |
| You can insert a literal dollar sign into the string using backslash |
| quoting:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#if expr="$a = \$test" --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>If a variable reference needs to be substituted in the |
| middle of a character sequence that might otherwise be |
| considered a valid identifier in its own right, it can be |
| disambiguated by enclosing the reference in braces, |
| <em>a la</em> shell substitution:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#set var="Zed" value="${REMOTE_HOST}_${REQUEST_METHOD}" --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>This will result in the <code>Zed</code> variable being set |
| to "<code>X_Y</code>" if <code>REMOTE_HOST</code> is |
| "<code>X</code>" and <code>REQUEST_METHOD</code> is |
| "<code>Y</code>".</p> |
| |
| <p>The below example will print "in foo" if the |
| <code>DOCUMENT_URI</code> is <code>/foo/file.html</code>, "in bar" |
| if it is <code>/bar/file.html</code> and "in neither" otherwise:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#if expr='"$DOCUMENT_URI" = "/foo/file.html"' --><br /> |
| <span class="indent"> |
| in foo<br /> |
| </span> |
| <!--#elif expr='"$DOCUMENT_URI" = "/bar/file.html"' --><br /> |
| <span class="indent"> |
| in bar<br /> |
| </span> |
| <!--#else --><br /> |
| <span class="indent"> |
| in neither<br /> |
| </span> |
| <!--#endif --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="flowctrl" id="flowctrl">Flow Control Elements</a></h2> |
| |
| |
| <p>The basic flow control elements are:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <!--#if expr="<var>test_condition</var>" --><br /> |
| <!--#elif expr="<var>test_condition</var>" --><br /> |
| <!--#else --><br /> |
| <!--#endif --> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>The <code>if</code> element works like an if statement in a |
| programming language. The test condition is evaluated and if |
| the result is true, then the text until the next <code>elif</code>, |
| <code>else</code> or <code>endif</code> element is included in the |
| output stream.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code>elif</code> or <code>else</code> statements are be used |
| to put text into the output stream if the original |
| <var>test_condition</var> was false. These elements are optional.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code>endif</code> element ends the <code>if</code> element |
| and is required.</p> |
| |
| <p><var>test_condition</var> is one of the following:</p> |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><code><var>string</var></code></dt> |
| <dd>true if <var>string</var> is not empty</dd> |
| |
| <dt><code><var>string1</var> = <var>string2</var><br /> |

| |
| <dd><p>Compare <var>string1</var> with <var>string2</var>. If |
| <var>string2</var> has the form <code>/<var>string2</var>/</code> |
| then it is treated as a regular expression. Regular expressions are |
| implemented by the <a href="http://www.pcre.org">PCRE</a> engine and |
| have the same syntax as those in <a href="http://www.perl.com">perl |
| 5</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>If you are matching positive (<code>=</code>), you can capture |
| grouped parts of the regular expression. The captured parts are |

| <p>Anything that's not recognized as a variable or an operator |

| <code>'string'</code>. Unquoted strings can't contain whitespace |
| (blanks and tabs) because it is used to separate tokens such as |
| variables. If multiple strings are found in a row, they are |
| concatenated using blanks. So,</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code><var>string1</var> <var>string2</var></code> results in <code><var>string1</var> <var>string2</var></code><br /> |
| <br /> |
| and<br /> |

| <code>'<var>string1</var> <var>string2</var>'</code> results in <code><var>string1</var> <var>string2</var></code>.</p></div> |

| <dl> |
| <dt><code>off</code></dt> |
| <dd>No special treatment of executable files.</dd> |
