[users@httpd] Apache modules question

[antoine <an...@gmail.com>]

Hello everyone ,

I have a project where i want to add a new phase between the content 
generation
and the logging phase of a request.
In other words i want after the response is generated and ready to be 
sent to the client
to manipulate the html produced code (do my stuff) and then send it to the
browser.

I have already read stuff on how to write apache2 modules but i 
understood that modules
can only substitute other modules that are enabled in the standard faces 
of a request processing
and not involve somehow a new phase.

My friend who works in the same project has done this with filters (i 
think) but we are looking for
a faster way (maybe a new module enabled after the content generation).

Please tell me how to do that.

Sorry for bad english.

Regards,
Tony

That's called an output filter.
See http://www.apachetutor.org/dev/request for the brief overview,
then get the book for details of how to implement it (and of
why it would be hugely inefficient to make it a "new phase").

I think anything but a filter is a complete dead end.
