well, AddOutputFilter didn't exist when that book was written. and you don't want to worry about that directive for mod_mime anyway - in apache 2.X does what a mime handler should do, simply set the MIME type based on various criteria. specifically, mod_mime no longer handles SetHandler, which means we can (finally) use the PerlTypeHandler to do something meaningful. > I have in my httpd.conf a line: `AddOutputFilter > Includes html` (which is pretty standard for new error docs handling in > Apache 2.0.x).
