Thanks for your help on this issue. I have modified my code so that it uses the same technique as the one you wrote, and it's now working quite well :)
I'm quite interested in the idea of having a generalized bit of code to modify HTTP headers. However, I'm not a particularly experienced Perl programmer, and have little knowledge of Mod_Perl's interaction with Apache. Thanks once again for your help. It would have taken me a very long time to overcome this problem without it. --- Regards, Chris Pringle UK PSG Hewlett-Packard, Bristol Tel: +44 117 31 29664 > -----Original Message----- > From: Stas Bekman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 07 October 2003 02:12 > Cc: Pringle, Chris (HP-PSG); [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [QUESTION] Relating a request to a response > > > Stas Bekman wrote: > [...] > > The following is a much more generic example than you need, so you > > will > > be able to simplify it a great deal.
