Hi.

I asked this earlier, and have had no response. So, I'll try
again :-(

I've got a Apache 1.2.6 server, and would like all HTML files
served by it to have added to them a HTML footer.

I've looked at mod_trailer.c (but it's very outdated, and causes
the server to SIGSEGV whenever I incorporate it).

I want the solution to be _server_ based, and not HTML
based (ie I don't want to put in a SSI like
 in each and every
document (I've got hundereds, and won't remember to add it
in to every new one I create).

Any pointers/links/help ?

If possible, replies to me, as my newsfeed appears to be
slightly broken.

Use ApacheSandwich (found in the CPAN directory modules/by-module/Apache/
on any CPAN site (you can get to CPAN from www.perl.com) or, someone

: Is there a way to add a footer to pages hosted on my server.

Yup. If you have control over the content use a ssi to do it. enable
your
cgi and write your header in perl or something like this:

#!/usr/bin/perl
print("Content-type: text/html\n\n");
print("I'm a freaking footer. Whew.\n");

If yoiu don't have control over the content ie you want to force
footers on
people: (i'm assuming your running apache)

-- access.conf --
<Directory /to/the/docs/>
AddHandler footer-action html htm shtml
Action footer-action /to/the/cgis/footer
</Directory>

-- footer --
#!/usr/bin/perl

require("webcity.lib");

print("Content-type: text/html\n\n");
open(HTML, $ENV{'PATH_TRANSLATED'});
while ($line = <HTML>) {
if ("\U$line\E" =~ "</BODY>") {
print(&get_footer());
print($line);
} elsif ("\U$line\E" =~ "<BODY") {
print($line);
print(&get_header());
} else {
print($line);
}

Quote:}

close(HTML);

(this will actually add a footer and a header)
