| <h3>Summary</h3> |
| |
| <p>This module is used to associate various bits of "meta |
| information" with files by their filename extensions. This |
| information relates the filename of the document to it's |
| mime-type, language, character set and encoding. This |
| information is sent to the browser, and participates in content |
| negotiation, so the user's preferences are respected when |
| choosing one of several possible files to serve. See |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_negotiation.html">mod_negotiation</a></code> for more information |
| about <a href="../content-negotiation.html">content negotiation</a>.</p> |
| |
| <p>The directives <code class="directive"><a href="#addcharset">AddCharset</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="#addencoding">AddEncoding</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="#addlanguage">AddLanguage</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="#addtype">AddType</a></code> 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. The directive <code class="directive"><a href="#typesconfig">TypesConfig</a></code> is used to specify a |
| file which also maps extensions onto MIME types. </p> |
| |
| <p>In addition, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/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 <code class="directive"><a href="#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="#addoutputfilter">AddOutputFilter</a></code>, and <code class="directive"><a href="#addinputfilter">AddInputFilter</a></code> control the modules |
| or scripts that serve the document. The <code class="directive"><a href="#multiviewsmatch">MultiviewsMatch</a></code> directive allows |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_negotiation.html">mod_negotiation</a></code> to consider these file extensions |
| to be included when testing Multiviews matches.</p> |
| |
| <p>While <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> associates meta-information |
| with filename extensions, the <code class="module"><a href="../mod/core.html">core</a></code> server |
| provides directives that are used to associate all the files in a |
| given container (<em>e.g.</em>, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#location"><Location></a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"><Directory></a></code>, or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#files"><Files></a></code>) with particular |
| meta-information. These directives include <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#forcetype">ForceType</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#sethandler">SetHandler</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#setinputfilter">SetInputFilter</a></code>, and <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#setoutputfilter">SetOutputFilter</a></code>. The core directives |
| override any filename extension mappings defined in |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>Note that changing the meta-information for a file does not |
| change the value of the <code>Last-Modified</code> header. |
| Thus, previously cached copies may still be used by a client or |
| proxy, with the previous headers. If you change the |
| meta-information (language, content type, character set or |
| encoding) you may need to 'touch' affected files (updating |
| their last modified date) to ensure that all visitors are |
| receive the corrected content headers.</p> |

| <h2><a name="multipleext" id="multipleext">Files with Multiple Extensions</a></h2> |
| <p>Files can have more than one extension, and the order of the |
| extensions is <em>normally</em> irrelevant. For example, if the |
| file <code>welcome.html.fr</code> maps onto content type |
| <code>text/html</code> and language French then the file |
| <code>welcome.fr.html</code> will map onto exactly the same information. |
| If more than one extension is given which maps onto the same |
| type of meta-information, then the one to the right will be |
| used, except for languages and content encodings. For example, if |
| <code>.gif</code> maps to the MIME-type <code>image/gif</code> and |
| <code>.html</code> maps to the MIME-type <code>text/html</code>, then the |
| file <code>welcome.gif.html</code> will be associated with the MIME-type |
| <code>text/html</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p><a href="#charset-lang">Languages</a> and <a href="#contentencoding">content encodings</a> are treated accumulative, because one can assign |
| more than one language or encoding to a particular resource. For example, |
| the file <code>welcome.html.en.de</code> will be delivered with |
| <code>Content-Language: en, de</code> and <code>Content-Type: |
| text/html</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>Care should be taken when a file with multiple extensions |
| gets associated with both a MIME-type and a handler. This will |
| usually result in the request being by the module associated |
| with the handler. For example, if the <code>.imap</code> |
| extension is mapped to the handler <code>imap-file</code> (from |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_imap.html">mod_imap</a></code>) and the <code>.html</code> extension is |
| mapped to the MIME-type <code>text/html</code>, then the file |
| <code>world.imap.html</code> will be associated with both the |
| <code>imap-file</code> handler and <code>text/html</code> MIME-type. |
| When it is processed, the <code>imap-file</code> handler will be used, |
| and so it will be treated as a <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_imap.html">mod_imap</a></code> imagemap |
| file.</p> |
| </div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div> |
| <div class="section"> |
| <h2><a name="contentencoding" id="contentencoding">Content encoding</a></h2> |
| <p>A file of a particular MIME type can additionally be encoded a |
| particular way to simplify transmission over the Internet. |
| While this usually will refer to compression, such as |
| <code>gzip</code>, it can also refer to encryption, such a |
| <code>pgp</code> or to an encoding such as UUencoding, which is |
| designed for transmitting a binary file in an ASCII (text) |
| format.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">HTTP/1.1 |
| RFC</a>, section 14.11 puts it this way:</p> |
| |
| <blockquote cite="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt"> |
| <p>The Content-Encoding entity-header field is used as a modifier to |
| the media-type. When present, its value indicates what additional |
| content codings have been applied to the entity-body, and thus what |
| decoding mechanisms must be applied in order to obtain the media-type |
| referenced by the Content-Type header field. Content-Encoding is |
| primarily used to allow a document to be compressed without losing |
| the identity of its underlying media type.</p> |
| </blockquote> |
| |
| <p>By using more than one file extension (see <a href="#multipleext">section above about multiple file |
| extensions</a>), you can indicate that a file is of a |
| particular <em>type</em>, and also has a particular |
| <em>encoding</em>. </p> |
| |
| <p>For example, you may have a file which is a Microsoft Word |
| document, which is pkzipped to reduce its size. If the |
| <code>.doc</code> extension is associated with the Microsoft |
| Word file type, and the <code>.zip</code> extension is |
| associated with the pkzip file encoding, then the file |
| <code>Resume.doc.zip</code> would be known to be a pkzip'ed Word |
| document.</p> |
| |
| <p>Apache sends a <code>Content-encoding</code> header with the |
| resource, in order to tell the client browser about the |
| encoding method.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code>Content-encoding: pkzip</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="charset-lang" id="charset-lang">Character sets and languages</a></h2> |
| <p>In addition to file type and the file encoding, |
| another important piece of information is what language a |
| particular document is in, and in what character set the file |
| should be displayed. For example, the document might be written |
| in the Vietnamese alphabet, or in Cyrillic, and should be |
| displayed as such. This information, also, is transmitted in |
| HTTP headers.</p> |
| |
| <p>The character set, language, encoding and mime type are all |
| used in the process of content negotiation (See |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_negotiation.html">mod_negotiation</a></code>) to determine |
| which document to give to the client, when there are |
| alternative documents in more than one character set, language, |
| encoding or mime type. All filename extensions associations |
| created with <code class="directive"><a href="#addcharset">AddCharset</a></code>, |
| <code class="directive"><a href="#addencoding">AddEncoding</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="#addlanguage">AddLanguage</a></code> and <code class="directive"><a href="#addtype">AddType</a></code> directives |
| (and extensions listed in the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime_magic.html#mimemagicfile">MimeMagicFile</a></code>) participate in this select process. |
| Filename extensions that are only associated using the <code class="directive"><a href="#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>, <code class="directive"><a href="#addinputfilter">AddInputFilter</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="#addoutputfilter">AddOutputFilter</a></code> directives may be included or excluded |
| from matching by using the <code class="directive"><a href="#multiviewsmatch">MultiviewsMatch</a></code> directive.</p> |
| |
| <h3><a name="charset" id="charset">Charset</a></h3> |
| <p>To convey this further information, Apache optionally sends |
| a <code>Content-Language</code> header, to specify the language |
| that the document is in, and can append additional information |
| onto the <code>Content-Type</code> header to indicate the |
| particular character set that should be used to correctly |
| render the information.</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| Content-Language: en, fr<br /> |
| Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>The language specification is the two-letter abbreviation |
| for the language. The <code>charset</code> is the name of the |
| particular character set which should be used.</p> |
| |

| <p>The <code class="directive">AddEncoding</code> directive maps the given |
| filename extensions to the specified encoding type. <var>MIME-enc</var> |
| is the MIME encoding to use for documents containing the |

| |
| <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code> |
| AddEncoding x-gzip .gz<br /> |
| AddEncoding x-compress .Z |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>This will cause filenames containing the <code>.gz</code> extension |
| to be marked as encoded using the <code>x-gzip</code> encoding, and |
| filenames containing the <code>.Z</code> extension to be marked as |
| encoded with <code>x-compress</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>Old clients expect <code>x-gzip</code> and <code>x-compress</code>, |
| however the standard dictates that they're equivalent to |
| <code>gzip</code> and <code>compress</code> respectively. Apache does |
| content encoding comparisons by ignoring any leading <code>x-</code>. |
| When responding with an encoding Apache will use whatever form |
| (<em>i.e.</em>, <code>x-foo</code> or <code>foo</code>) the |
| client requested. If the client didn't specifically request a |
| particular form Apache will use the form given by the |
| <code>AddEncoding</code> directive. To make this long story |
| short, you should always use <code>x-gzip</code> and |
| <code>x-compress</code> for these two specific encodings. More |
| recent encodings, such as <code>deflate</code> should be |
| specified without the <code>x-</code>.</p> |

| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>Then the document <code>xxxx.en.Z</code> will be treated as |
| being a compressed English document (as will the document |
| <code>xxxx.Z.en</code>). Although the content language is |
| reported to the client, the browser is unlikely to use this |

| more useful for <a href="../content-negotiation.html">content |
| negotiation</a>, where the server returns one from several documents |
| based on the client's language preference.</p> |

| <p>If multiple language assignments are made for the same |

| <p><code class="directive">MultiviewsMatch</code> permits three different |
| behaviors for <a href="mod_negotiation.html">mod_negotiation</a>'s |
| Multiviews feature. Multiviews allows a request for a file, |
| <em>e.g.</em> <code>index.html</code>, to match any negotiated |
| extensions following the base request, <em>e.g.</em> |
| <code>index.html.en</code>, <code>index.html.fr</code>, or |
| <code>index.html.gz</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>The <code>NegotiatedOnly</code> option provides that every extension |
| following the base name must correlate to a recognized |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> extension for content negotation, <em>e.g.</em> |
| Charset, Content-Type, Language, or Encoding. This is the strictest |
| implementation with the fewest unexpected side effects, and is the |
| default behavior.</p> |
| |
| <p>To include extensions associated with Handlers and/or Filters, |
| set the <code class="directive">MultiviewsMatch</code> directive to either |
| <code>Handlers</code>, <code>Filters</code>, or both option keywords. |
| If all other factors are equal, the smallest file will be served, |
| <em>e.g.</em> in deciding between <code>index.html.cgi</code> of 500 |
| bytes and <code>index.html.pl</code> of 1000 bytes, the <code>.cgi</code> |
| file would win in this example. Users of <code>.asis</code> files |
| might prefer to use the Handler option, if <code>.asis</code> files are |
| associated with the <code>asis-handler</code>.</p> |
| |
| <p>You may finally allow <code>Any</code> extensions to match, even if |
| <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html">mod_mime</a></code> doesn't recognize the extension. This was the |
| behavior in Apache 1.3, and can cause unpredicatable results, such as |
| serving .old or .bak files the webmaster never expected to be served.</p> |
| |
| <p>For example, the following configuration will allow handlers |
| and filters to participate in Multviews, but will exclude unknown |
| files:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| MultiviewsMatch Handlers Filters |
| </code></p></div> |

| <p>The <code class="directive">RemoveType</code> directive removes any MIME |
| type associations for files with the given extensions. This allows |
| <code>.htaccess</code> files in subdirectories to undo any |
| associations inherited from parent directories or the server |
| config files. An example of its use might be:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><h3>/foo/.htaccess:</h3><p><code> |
| RemoveType .cgi |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>This will remove any special handling of <code>.cgi</code> |
| files in the <code>/foo/</code> directory and any beneath it, |
| causing the files to be treated as being of the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#defaulttype">DefaultType</a></code>.</p> |
| |
| <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3> |
| <p><code class="directive">RemoveType</code> directives are processed |
| <em>after</em> any <code class="directive"><a href="#addtype">AddType</a></code> |
| directives, so it is possible they may undo the effects of the |
| latter if both occur within the same directory configuration.</p> |

| <p>The <code class="directive">TypesConfig</code> directive sets the location |
| of the MIME types configuration file. <var>File-path</var> is relative |
| to the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#serverroot">ServerRoot</a></code>. 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 <a href="http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/index.html">http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/index.html</a>. |
| This simplifies the <code>httpd.conf</code> file by providing the |
| majority of media-type definitions, and may be overridden by |
| <code class="directive"><a href="#addtype">AddType</a></code> directives as |
| needed. You should not edit the <code>mime.types</code> file, because |
| it may be replaced when you upgrade your server.</p> |
| |
| <p>The file contains lines in the format of the arguments to |
| an <code class="directive"><a href="#addtype">AddType</a></code> directive:</p> |
| |
| <div class="example"><p><code> |
| <var>MIME-type</var> [<var>extension</var>] ... |
| </code></p></div> |
| |
| <p>The case of the extension does not matter. Blank lines, and lines |
| beginning with a hash character (<code>#</code>) are ignored.</p> |
| |
| <div class="note"> |
| Please do <strong>not</strong> send requests to the Apache HTTP |
| Server Project to add any new entries in the distributed |
| <code>mime.types</code> file unless (1) they are already |
| registered with IANA, and (2) they use widely accepted, |
| non-conflicting filename extensions across platforms. |
| <code>category/x-subtype</code> 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. |
