| <H1 ALIGN="CENTER">Module mod_charset_lite</H1> |
| |
| <P> |
| This module is contained in the <CODE>mod_charset_lite.c</CODE> file, with |
| Apache 2.0 and later. It provides the ability to specify character set |
| translation, or recoding, by directory or location or virtual server. It |
| is not compiled into the server by default. <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> |
| requires that Apache is compiled with APACHE_XLATE defined. |
| </P> |
| |
| <P> |
| This module provides a small subset of configuration mechanisms |
| implemented by Russian Apache and its associated <CODE>mod_charset</CODE>. |
| </P> |
| |
| <H2>Summary</H2> |
| <P> |
| This is an <STRONG>experimental</STRONG> module and should be used with |
| care. Experiment with your <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> configuration to |
| ensure that it performs the desired function. |
| </P> |
| <P> |
| <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> allows the administrator to specify the |
| source character set of objects as well as the character set they should |
| be translated into before sending to the client. |
| <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> does not translate the data itself but |
| instead tells Apache what translation to perform. |
| <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> is applicable to EBCDIC and ASCII |
| host environments. In an EBCDIC environment, Apache normally translates |
| text content from the code page of the Apache process locale to |
| ISO-8859-1. <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> can be used to specify that |
| a different translation is to be performed. In an ASCII environment, |
| Apache normally performs no translation, so <CODE>mod_charset_lite</CODE> |
| is needed in order for any translation to take place. |

| <P> |
| The value of the <EM>charset</EM> argument must be accepted as a valid |
| character set name by the character set support in APR. Generally, this |
| means that it must be supported by iconv. |

| Example: |

| <PRE> |
| <Directory "/export/home/trawick/apacheinst/htdocs/convert"> |
| CharsetSourceEnc UTF-16BE |

| </Directory> |
| </PRE> |
| |
| The character set names in this example work with the iconv |
| translation support in Solaris 8. |
