Script


Syntax: Script method cgi-script
Context: server config, virtual host, directory
Status: Base
Module: mod_actions
Compatibility: Script is only available in Apache 1.1 and later

This directive adds an action, which will activate cgi-script when a file is requested using the method of method, which can be one of GET, POST, PUT or DELETE. It sends the URL and file path of the requested document using the standard CGI PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment variables.

Note that the Script command defines default actions only. If a CGI script is called, or some other resource that is capable of handling the requested method internally, it will do so. Also note that Script with a method of GET will only be called if there are query arguments present (e.g., foo.html?hi). Otherwise, the request will proceed normally.

Examples:

    Script GET /cgi-bin/search     #e.g. for <ISINDEX>-style searching
    Script PUT /~bob/put.cgi
