| <h3>Summary</h3> |
| |
| <p>This module has two directives. The <code class="directive"><a href="#action">Action</a></code> directive lets you run CGI |
| scripts whenever a file of a certain type is requested. The |
| <code class="directive"><a href="#script">Script</a></code> directive lets |
| you run CGI scripts whenever a particular method is used in a |
| request. This makes it much easier to execute scripts that process |
| files.</p> |

| <p>This directive adds an action, which will activate |
| <var>cgi-script</var> when <var>action-type</var> is triggered by the |
| request. The <var>cgi-script</var> is the URL-path to a resource |
| that has been designated as a CGI script using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>. The |
| <var>action-type</var> can be either a <a href="../handler.html">handler</a> or a MIME content type. It |
| sends the URL and file path of the requested document using the |
| standard CGI PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment |
| variables.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Examples</h3><p><code> |
| # Requests for files of a particular type:<br /> |
| Action image/gif /cgi-bin/images.cgi<br /> |
| <br /> |
| # Files of a particular file extension<br /> |
| AddHandler my-file-type .xyz<br /> |
| Action my-file-type /cgi-bin/program.cgi<br /> |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>In the first example, requests for files with a MIME content |
| type of <code>image/gif</code> will instead be handled by the |
| specified cgi script <code>/cgi-bin/images.cgi</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>In the second example, requests for files with a file extension of |
| <code>.xyz</code> are handled instead by the specified cgi script |
| <code>/cgi-bin/program.cgi</code>.</p> |

| <p>This directive adds an action, which will activate |
| <var>cgi-script</var> when a file is requested using the method of |
| <var>method</var>. The <var>cgi-script</var> is the URL-path to a |
| resource that has been designated as a CGI script using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>. The URL and |
| file path of the requested document is sent using the standard CGI |
| PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment variables.</p> |
| |
| <div class="note"> |
| Any arbitrary method name may be used. <strong>Method names are |
| case-sensitive</strong>, so <code>Script PUT</code> and |
| <code>Script put</code> have two entirely different |
| effects. |
| </div> |
| |
| <p>Note that the Script command defines default actions only. |
| If a CGI script is called, or some other resource that is |
| capable of handling the requested method internally, it will do |
| so. Also note that Script with a method of <code>GET</code> |
| will only be called if there are query arguments present |
| (<em>e.g.</em>, foo.html?hi). Otherwise, the request will |
| proceed normally.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Examples</h3><p><code> |
| # For <ISINDEX>-style searching<br /> |
| Script GET /cgi-bin/search<br /> |
| <br /> |
| # A CGI PUT handler<br /> |
| Script PUT /~bob/put.cgi<br /> |
| </code></p></div> |
