Re: File name conversion

Hi Aaron,

Check out the section titled "Using a Translation Handler to Change the
URI" in Chapter 7 of the Eagle book, at
http://www.modperl.com/book/chapters/ch7.html#Using_a_Translation_Handler_to_C.

Aaron Johnson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) said something to this effect:
 Is there a module that allows you to translate the file name into
 something else, but keeps the requested filename in an enviroment
 variable or other location?

That is just what I was looking for.

I just modified the $r-filename and left $r-uri untouched.

10 lines of code and I have it doing exactly what I needed and Apache::ASP reads
the correct file.
I still have the $ENV{REQUEST_URI} to check for the orginal name requested, there
by allow me to set options based on it.

I see now it is in the Guide as well at:
http://thingy.kcilink.com/modperlguide/snippets/PerlTransHandler_example.html

Not knowing what I needed to do was called (or what phase it was best handled) was
the root of my problem.

Thanks!

Aaron Johnson
