9282e3c21a20f354e22ad3f092aea4956abaea5cMichael Graff    <p>This module is used to associate various bits of "meta
294802790e8030f1c19b6c2c5d5204b6f464c729Michael Graff    information" with files by their filename extensions. This
66bd3b3c6b171271c705b897823dcdcf29464698Michael Graff    information relates the filename of the document to it's
66bd3b3c6b171271c705b897823dcdcf29464698Michael Graff    mime-type, language, character set and encoding. This
058eeac2105c39e7cb31fb75ee0b473717ec3bbcMark Andrews    information is sent to the browser, and participates in content
1a69a1a78cfaa86f3b68bbc965232b7876d4da2aDavid Lawrence    negotiation, so the user's preferences are respected when

ad3a5c4b7e21af04d1b872f933c2e19e5c0a135bMichael Graff    provides directives that are used to associate all the files in a

11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    <p>Files can have more than one extension, and the order of the
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    extensions is <em>normally</em> irrelevant. For example, if the
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    file <code>welcome.html.fr</code> maps onto content type
45dadd25ba4b72ec2d8eecc342edc787d8421e3aBob Halley    <code>text/html</code> and language French then the file
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    <code>welcome.fr.html</code> will map onto exactly the same information.
439c0011e642fb1d26011116144af698125262dbMichael Graff    If more than one extension is given which maps onto the same
11efdeb076d65fa9f0c5fc067dc040e7c99dfba6Michael Graff    type of meta-information, then the one to the right will be
3ac63b472022ff92691d1fe69ac715a729671965Michael Graff    used. For example, if <code>.gif</code> maps to the MIME-type
11efdeb076d65fa9f0c5fc067dc040e7c99dfba6Michael Graff    <code>image/gif</code> and <code>.html</code> maps to the MIME-type
3ac63b472022ff92691d1fe69ac715a729671965Michael Graff    <code>text/html</code>, then the file <code>welcome.gif.html</code>
84c46a7acb961cac19c0d857bfdd00f3383a9bc6Michael Graff    will be associated with the MIME-type <code>text/html</code>.</p>
3ac63b472022ff92691d1fe69ac715a729671965Michael Graff
a44c12b332b867f29631e235eb11d1263c73d6c0Bob Halley    <p>Care should be taken when a file with multiple extensions
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    gets associated with both a MIME-type and a handler. This will
30251e07d1705d1a85b0e1d5a969496e1aed612eMichael Graff    usually result in the request being by the module associated
30251e07d1705d1a85b0e1d5a969496e1aed612eMichael Graff    with the handler. For example, if the <code>.imap</code>
e51511aa3281f8dc384eb1283115c7f8d5c402aeMichael Graff    extension is mapped to the handler <code>imap-file</code> (from

11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    mapped to the MIME-type <code>text/html</code>, then the file
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    <code>world.imap.html</code> will be associated with both the
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    <code>imap-file</code> handler and <code>text/html</code> MIME-type.
11fcc67616fac1bc6a28b3d4fed24641137888e7Michael Graff    When it is processed, the <code>imap-file</code> handler will be used,
2992344aacdb08e4af936c176d49ef789f5673ddMichael Graff    and so it will be treated as a <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_imap.html">mod_imap</a></code> imagemap

45dadd25ba4b72ec2d8eecc342edc787d8421e3aBob Halley    however the standard dictates that they're equivalent to

439c0011e642fb1d26011116144af698125262dbMichael Graff    When responding with an encoding Apache will use whatever form
