<h2><a name="order" id="order">Order of Processing</a></h2>

    <p>The directives provided by <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_headers.html">mod_headers</a></code> can
    occur almost anywhere within the server configuration, and can be
    limited in scope by enclosing them in <a href="../sections.html">configuration sections</a>.</p>

    <p>Order of processing is important and is affected both by the
    order in the configuration file and by placement in <a href="../sections.html#mergin">configuration sections</a>. These
    two directives have a different effect if reversed:</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
RequestHeader append MirrorID "mirror 12"
RequestHeader unset MirrorID
    </pre>


    <p>This way round, the <code>MirrorID</code> header is not set. If
    reversed, the MirrorID header is set to "mirror 12".</p>
</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div>
<div class="section">
<h2><a name="early" id="early">Early and Late Processing</a></h2>
    <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_headers.html">mod_headers</a></code> can be applied either early or late
    in the request.  The normal mode is late, when <em>Request</em> Headers are
    set immediately before running the content generator and <em>Response</em>
    Headers just as the response is sent down the wire.  Always use
    Late mode in an operational server.</p>

    <p>Early mode is designed as a test/debugging aid for developers.
    Directives defined using the <code>early</code> keyword are set
    right at the beginning of processing the request.  This means
    they can be used to simulate different requests and set up test
    cases, but it also means that headers may be changed at any time
    by other modules before generating a Response.</p>

    <p>Because early directives are processed before the request path's
    configuration is traversed, early headers can only be set in a
    main server or virtual host context.  Early directives cannot depend
    on a request path, so they will fail in contexts such as
    <code>&lt;Directory&gt;</code> or <code>&lt;Location&gt;</code>.</p>

<h2><a name="examples" id="examples">Examples</a></h2>

    <ol>
      <li>
        Copy all request headers that begin with "TS" to the
        response headers:

        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
          Header echo ^TS
        </pre>

      </li>

      <li>
        Add a header, <code>MyHeader</code>, to the response including a
        timestamp for when the request was received and how long it
        took to begin serving the request. This header can be used by
        the client to intuit load on the server or in isolating
        bottlenecks between the client and the server.

        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
          Header set MyHeader "%D %t"
        </pre>


        <p>results in this header being added to the response:</p>

        <div class="example"><p><code>
          MyHeader: D=3775428 t=991424704447256
        </code></p></div>
      </li>

      <li>
        Say hello to Joe

        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
Header set MyHeader "Hello Joe. It took %D microseconds for Apache to serve this request."
        </pre>


        <p>results in this header being added to the response:</p>

        <div class="example"><p><code>
          MyHeader: Hello Joe. It took D=3775428 microseconds for Apache
          to serve this request.
        </code></p></div>
      </li>

      <li>
        Conditionally send <code>MyHeader</code> on the response if and
        only if header <code>MyRequestHeader</code> is present on the request.
        This is useful for constructing headers in response to some client
        stimulus. Note that this example requires the services of the
        <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_setenvif.html">mod_setenvif</a></code> module.

        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
SetEnvIf MyRequestHeader myvalue HAVE_MyRequestHeader
Header set MyHeader "%D %t mytext" env=HAVE_MyRequestHeader
        </pre>


        <p>If the header <code>MyRequestHeader: myvalue</code> is present on
        the HTTP request, the response will contain the following header:</p>

        <div class="example"><p><code>
          MyHeader: D=3775428 t=991424704447256 mytext
        </code></p></div>
      </li>

      <li>
        Enable DAV to work with Apache running HTTP through SSL hardware
        (<a href="http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2006-03/0549.shtml">problem
        description</a>) by replacing <var>https:</var> with
        <var>http:</var> in the <var>Destination</var> header:

        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
          RequestHeader edit Destination ^https: http: early
        </pre>

      </li>

      <li>
        Set the same header value under multiple non-exclusive conditions,
        but do not duplicate the value in the final header.
        If all of the following conditions applied to a request (i.e.,
        if the <code>CGI</code>, <code>NO_CACHE</code> and
        <code>NO_STORE</code> environment variables all existed for the
        request):

        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
Header merge Cache-Control no-cache env=CGI
Header merge Cache-Control no-cache env=NO_CACHE
Header merge Cache-Control no-store env=NO_STORE
        </pre>


        <p>then the response would contain the following header:</p>

        <div class="example"><p><code>
          Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store
        </code></p></div>

        <p>If <code>append</code> was used instead of <code>merge</code>,
        then the response would contain the following header:</p>

        <div class="example"><p><code>
          Cache-Control: no-cache, no-cache, no-store
        </code></p></div>
      </li>
      <li>
        Set a test cookie if and only if the client didn't send us a cookie
        <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">
          Header set Set-Cookie testcookie "expr=-z %{req:Cookie}"

    <p>This directive can replace, merge or remove HTTP response
    headers. The header is modified just after the content handler
    and output filters are run, allowing outgoing headers to be
    modified.</p>

    <p> The optional <var>condition</var> argument determines which internal
    table of responses headers this directive will operate against.  Other
    components of the server may have stored their response headers in either
    the table that corresponds to <code>onsuccess</code> or the table that
    corresponds to <code>always</code>.  "Always" in this context refers to
    whether headers you add will be sent during both a successful and unsucessful
    response, but if your action is a function of an existing header, you
    will have to read on for further complications.</p>

    <p> The default value of <code>onsuccess</code> may need to be changed to
    <code>always</code> under the circumstances similar to those listed below.
    Note also that repeating this directive with both conditions makes sense in
    some scenarios because <code>always</code> is not a superset of
    <code>onsuccess</code> with respect to existing headers:</p>

    <ul>
       <li> You're adding a header to a non-success (non-2xx) response, such
            as a redirect, in which case only the table corresponding to
            <code>always</code> is used in the ultimate response.</li>
       <li> You're modifying or removing a header generated by a CGI script,
            in which case the CGI scripts are in the table corresponding to
            <code>always</code> and not in the default table.</li>
       <li> You're modifying or removing a header generated by some piece of
            the server but that header is not being found by the default
            <code>onsuccess</code> condition.</li>
    </ul>

    <p>The action it performs is determined by the first
    argument (second argument if a <var>condition</var> is specified).
    This can be one of the following values:</p>

    <dl>
    <dt><code>add</code></dt>
    <dd>The response header is added to the existing set of headers,
    even if this header already exists. This can result in two
    (or more) headers having the same name. This can lead to
    unforeseen consequences, and in general <code>set</code>,
    <code>append</code> or <code>merge</code> should be used instead.</dd>

    <dt><code>append</code></dt>
    <dd>The response header is appended to any existing header of
    the same name. When a new value is merged onto an existing
    header it is separated from the existing header with a comma.
    This is the HTTP standard way of giving a header multiple values.</dd>

    <dt><code>echo</code></dt>
    <dd>Request headers with this name are echoed back in the
    response headers. <var>header</var> may be a
    <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="see glossary">regular expression</a>.
    <var>value</var> must be omitted.</dd>

    <dt><code>edit</code></dt>
    <dt><code>edit*</code></dt>
    <dd>If this response header exists, its value is transformed according
    to a <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="see glossary">regular expression</a>
    search-and-replace.  The <var>value</var> argument is a <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="see glossary">regular expression</a>, and the <var>replacement</var>
    is a replacement string, which may contain backreferences.
    The <code>edit</code> form will match and replace exactly once
    in a header value, whereas the <code>edit*</code> form will replace
    <em>every</em> instance of the search pattern if it appears more
    than once.</dd>

    <dt><code>merge</code></dt>
    <dd>The response header is appended to any existing header of
    the same name, unless the value to be appended already appears in the
    header's comma-delimited list of values.  When a new value is merged onto
    an existing header it is separated from the existing header with a comma.
    This is the HTTP standard way of giving a header multiple values.
    Values are compared in a case sensitive manner, and after
    all format specifiers have been processed.  Values in double quotes
    are considered different from otherwise identical unquoted values.</dd>

    <dt><code>set</code></dt>
    <dd>The response header is set, replacing any previous header
    with this name. The <var>value</var> may be a format string.</dd>

    <dt><code>unset</code></dt>
    <dd>The response header of this name is removed, if it exists.
    If there are multiple headers of the same name, all will be
    removed. <var>value</var> must be omitted.</dd>
    </dl>

    <p>This argument is followed by a <var>header</var> name, which
    can include the final colon, but it is not required. Case is
    ignored for <code>set</code>, <code>append</code>, <code>merge</code>,
    <code>add</code>, <code>unset</code> and <code>edit</code>.
    The <var>header</var> name for <code>echo</code>
    is case sensitive and may be a <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="see glossary">regular
    expression</a>.</p>

    <p>For <code>set</code>, <code>append</code>, <code>merge</code> and
    <code>add</code> a <var>value</var> is specified as the next argument.
    If <var>value</var>
    contains spaces, it should be surrounded by double quotes.
    <var>value</var> may be a character string, a string containing format
    specifiers or a combination of both. The following format specifiers
    are supported in <var>value</var>:</p>

    <table class="bordered"><tr class="header"><th>Format</th><th>Description</th></tr>

        <td>The time from when the request was received to the time the

    <div class="note"><h3>Note</h3>
      <p>The <code>%s</code> format specifier is only available in
      Apache 2.1 and later; it can be used instead of <code>%e</code>
      to avoid the overhead of enabling <code>SSLOptions
      +StdEnvVars</code>.  If <code>SSLOptions +StdEnvVars</code> must
      be enabled anyway for some other reason, <code>%e</code> will be
      more efficient than <code>%s</code>.</p>
    </div>

    <p>For <code>edit</code> there is both a <var>value</var> argument
    which is a <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="see glossary">regular expression</a>,
    and an additional <var>replacement</var> string.</p>

    <p>The <code class="directive">Header</code> directive may be followed by
    an additional argument, which may be any of:</p>
    <dl>
    <dt><code>early</code></dt>
    <dd>Specifies <a href="#early">early processing</a>.</dd>
    <dt><code>env=[!]<var>varname</var></code></dt>
    <dd>The directive is applied if and only if the <a href="../env.html">environment variable</a> <code>varname</code> exists.
        A <code>!</code> in front of <code>varname</code> reverses the test,
        so the directive applies only if <code>varname</code> is unset.</dd>
    <dt><code>expr=<var>expression</var></code></dt>
    <dd>The directive is applied if and only if <var>expression</var>
        evaluates to true. Details of expression syntax and evaluation are
        documented in the <a href="../expr.html">ap_expr</a> documentation.</dd>
    </dl>

    <p>Except in <a href="#early">early</a> mode, the
    <code class="directive">Header</code> directives are processed just
    before the response is sent to the network. These means that it is
    possible to set and/or override most headers, except for those headers
    added by the HTTP header filter, such as Content-Type.</p>

    <code>add</code> a <var>value</var> is given as the third argument. If a
    <var>value</var> contains spaces, it should be surrounded by double
    quotes. For <code>unset</code>, no <var>value</var> should be given.
    <var>value</var> may be a character string, a string containing format
    specifiers or a combination of both. The supported format specifiers
    are the same as for the <code class="directive"><a href="#header">Header</a></code>,
    please have a look there for details.  For <code>edit</code> both
    a <var>value</var> and a <var>replacement</var> are required, and are
    a <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#regex" title="see glossary">regular expression</a> and a
    replacement string respectively.</p>

    <p>The <code class="directive">RequestHeader</code> directive may be followed by
    an additional argument, which may be any of:</p>
    <dl>
    <dt><code>early</code></dt>
    <dd>Specifies <a href="#early">early processing</a>.</dd>
    <dt><code>env=[!]<var>varname</var></code></dt>
    <dd>The directive is applied if and only if the <a href="../env.html">environment variable</a> <code>varname</code> exists.
        A <code>!</code> in front of <code>varname</code> reverses the test,
        so the directive applies only if <code>varname</code> is unset.</dd>
    <dt><code>expr=<var>expression</var></code></dt>
    <dd>The directive is applied if and only if <var>expression</var>
        evaluates to true. Details of expression syntax and evaluation are
        documented in the <a href="../expr.html">ap_expr</a> documentation.</dd>
    </dl>

    <p>Except in <a href="#early">early</a> mode, the
    <code class="directive">RequestHeader</code> directive is processed
    just before the request is run by its handler in the fixup phase.
    This should allow headers generated by the browser, or by Apache
    input filters to be overridden or modified.</p>
