            Bug ID: 70096
           Summary: URL-path misleading (excludes PATH_INFO)
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.5-HEAD
          Hardware: All
               URL: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/mod/directive-d
                    ict.html#Syntax
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P4
         Component: Documentation
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
  Target Milestone: ---

The DPI|discardpath section of the RewriteRule Flags page implies that
PATH_INFO is excluded from the URL-path:
> In per-directory context, the URL-path each RewriteRule compares against is 
> the concatenation of the current URL-path and PATH_INFO.
Yet the Syntax section of the Terms Used to Describe Directives page simply
defines a URL-path as follows:
> The part of a URL which follows the scheme, hostname, and optional port, but 
> precedes any query string — for example, /path/to/file.html. The URL-path 
> represents a web-view of a resource, as opposed to a file-system view.
One would imagine that the URL-path matches the URL path, but that is not
necessarily the case as the latter includes PATH_INFO. Having a misleading name
is one thing, but as a minimum prevention from confusion, the definition of
“URL-path”  should leave no room for ambiguity. An example with a PATH_INFO
would help.
