<H2>Summary</H2>
<p>This module provides the handler <code>send-as-is</code> wich
causes Apache to send the document without adding most of the usual
HTTP headers.</p>
<P>This can be used to send any kind of data from the server,
including redirects and other special HTTP responses, without
requiring a cgi-script or an nph script.
<p>For historical reasons, this module will also process any file with
the mime type <code>httpd/send-as-is</code>.
<H2>Directives</H2>
<P>This module provides no directives.
<H2>Usage</H2>
<P>In the server configuration file, associate files with the
<code>send-as-is</code> handler <EM>e.g.</EM>
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE>AddHandler send-as-is asis</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
The contents of any file with a <CODE>.asis</CODE> extension will then
be sent by Apache to the client with almost no changes. Clients will
need HTTP headers to be attached, so do not forget them. A Status:
header is also required; the data should be the 3-digit HTTP response
code, followed by a textual message.
<P>Here's an example of a file whose contents are sent <EM>as is</EM>
so as to tell the client that a file has redirected.
<BLOCKQUOTE><CODE> Status: 301 Now where did I leave that URL <BR>
Location: http://xyz.abc.com/foo/bar.html <BR>
Content-type: text/html

</BODY> <BR>
</HTML>
</CODE></BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>Notes: the server always adds a Date: and Server: header to the data returned
to the client, so these should not be included in the file.
The server does <EM>not</EM> add a Last-Modified header; it probably should.
