Notes problem solved...I should have been using the "notes" object not the "note" object. Found it in the mod_perl 1.0 documentation.
Will the mod_perl 2.0 documentation include all the mod_perl 1.0 API at some point? At the moment, the API for 2.0 seems to be just changes from 1.0. --- Regards, Chris Pringle UK PSG Hewlett-Packard, Bristol Tel: 0117 31 29664 Mob: 07752 307063 > -----Original Message----- > From: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > org] On Behalf Of Pringle, Chris (HP-PSG) > Sent: 03 October 2003 11:50 > To: Stas Bekman > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [QUESTION] Relating a request to a response > > > > > > That should be pretty trivial to accomplish. > > > > To answer your question of passing data: use notes: > > > > $filter->r->note->set(transform => 1); > > > > if you work with the connection level filter you will need to use: > > > > $filter->c->note->set(transform => 1); > > > > though remember that this note will be seen through the > > connection, i.e. for > > all requests coming over the same connection. > > > > However I believe there is a much simpler solution: > > > > add a connection level filter similar to this one: > > http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/user/handlers/filters.html#Con > > nection_Input_Filters > > rewrite the request (URI) line to strip your magic argument > and add a > > new > > header, like: > > X-Chris-Transform: On > > after the request line (well may be you need to do it after > the Host: > > header, > > I'm not sure whether the server expects the Host: header second). > > > > Now your request level filter can lookup this header: > > > > $filter->r->headers_in->get('X-Chris-Transform'); > > > > as simple as that. > > Thanks for this. > > I get errors when I try and use notes.
