This question has probably been asked a hundred times on the Apache lists. There really isn't much decent documentation out there on how to write Apache modules. The Apache1 code is rather simple, so most people just read the server code to figure it out. The closest thing to real documentation is an old book called "Writing Apache Modules with Perl and C" by Lincoln Stein and Doug MacEachern. You'll want to read chapter 3 - "The Apache Module Architecture and API" where this particular topic is covered. -Rasmus -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
