[users@httpd] mod_rewrite + mod_headers :How to set Cache instructions for Rewritten .swf content only ?

[ABAPGUY <ab...@yahoo.com>]

Hi Apache Experts,
I wish to set 2 Cache statements for .swf files (only) . I am rewriting using mod_rewrite and have enabled mod_headers .
My 1st attempt did not work  :

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.(swf)$ [NC]
Header set Cache-Control "must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate"
Header set Pragma "public"
RewriteRule ^/<flash_dir>/(.*)\.swf https://<servername>/<flash_dir>/$1.swf [P,NC,L]

It seems RewriteCond is applied to the next Rewrite rule ..but the Headers are set for all subsequent Rewrite rules ..not what I wanted .
Is this the wrong way to do it ? How do I set the Headers for .swf files only ?

Regards
Daniel

[Igor Cicimov <ic...@gmail.com>]

<FilesMatch "\.(swf)$">
Header set Cache-Control "must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate"
Header set Pragma "public"
</FilesMatch>

or use mod_headers commands per content (read the mod_headers instructions
on apache.org)

You can use the following code to cache only .swf files:

<FilesMatch *.swf$>
Header set 604800 public must-revalidate
</FilesMatch>
