<p>A <em>filter</em> is a process which is applied to data that is
|
|
sent or received by the server. Data sent by clients to the server
|
|
is processed by <em>input filters</em> while data sent by the
|
|
server to the client is processed by <em>output filters</em>.
|
|
Multiple filters can be applied to the data, and the order
|
|
of the filters can be explicitly specified. In addition,
|
|
since filters apply to all content, they allow for flexible
|
|
manipulation of data such as processing the output of
|
|
CGI scripts for Server Side Includes.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The set of filters which apply to data can be manipulated
|
|
with the <code>SetInputFilter</code> and <code>SetOutputFilter</code>
|
|
directives.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The only filter currently included with the Apache distribution
|
|
is the <code>INCLUDE</code> filter which is provided by
|
|
<a href="mod/mod_include.html">mod_include</a> to process output
|
|
for Server Side Includes. There is also an experimental module
|
|
called <a href="mod/mod_ext_filter.html">mod_ext_filter</a>
|
|
which allows for external programs to be defined as filters.</p>
