You're up against a mismatch of what websockets expect and what HTTP defines. mod_proxy_http implements HTTP, and can't be held responsible for other protocols. Assuming(?) no complexities beyond the headers, it would be straightforward to hack mod_proxy_http to provide that option (note: NOT do that by default). It just needs someone to sit down with the websockets spec and go through the relevant contradictions with HTTP. You could also question why the websockets folks went and abused hop-by-hop headers when they could instead have done what HTTP provides for and created extension headers to meet their needs without breaking anything! -- Nick Kew --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org
