A really really weird use for subrequests...

	
	Hy, list people.
	
	I'm need build a rewriting proxy module for my apache.	The basic
idea is get a request, turn it on a proxy request as described in the
eagle book @ page 371, rewrite the $request->contents so the client will
come back to me when processing the next request and let apache follow the
content generation process and response phase as it allways do.
	
	I know how to make the transformation to a mod_proxy request.
	I also know that the mod_proxy will bring me the right page, so i
simply don't care about this stage.
	
	But i *really* *don't* *know* how to rewrite the response *before*
the mod_proxy sends it back to the client.
	
	Can i make the mod_proxy redirect using a sub-request, and still
have the contents (and headers, and everything else) to let apache handle
the response phase ?
	
	If not, how can i do this weird thing?
	
	thank you all in advance for any ideas!
	
	[]'z!
