Am I missing something? git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk@835824 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68 --- diff --git a/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en b/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en index 4c27d4543f9..b05eaed87be 100644 --- a/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en +++ b/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en @@ -47,7 +47,6 @@

    External Rewriting Engine

    A FAQ: How can we solve the FOO/BAR/QUUX/etc. - problem? There seems no solution by the use of - mod_rewrite...

    Solution:

    Use an external RewriteMap, i.e. a program which acts - like a RewriteMap. It is run once on startup of Apache - receives the requested URLs on STDIN and has - to put the resulting (usually rewritten) URL on - STDOUT (same order!).

    - -
    -RewriteEngine on
-RewriteMap    quux-map       prg:/path/to/map.quux.pl
-RewriteRule   ^/~quux/(.*)$  /~quux/${quux-map:$1}

    -#!/path/to/perl

-#   disable buffered I/O which would lead
-#   to deadloops for the Apache server
-$| = 1;
-
-#   read URLs one per line from stdin and
-#   generate substitution URL on stdout
-while (<>) {
-    s|^foo/|bar/|;
-    print $_;
-}
-
    - -

    This is a demonstration-only example and just rewrites - all URLs /~quux/foo/... to - /~quux/bar/.... Actually you can program - whatever you like. But notice that while such maps can be - used also by an average user, only the - system administrator can define it.
