NAME Apache::HEADRegistry - Apache::Registry drop-in for HEAD
requests SYNOPSIS httpd.conf: PerlModule Apache::HEADRegsitry
SetHandler perl-script PerlHandler Apache::HEADRegistry Options
+ExecCGI PerlSendHeader On DESCRIPTION Apache::HEADRegistry is a
drop-in for Apache::Registry that properly handles HEAD
requests. Currently, Apache::Registry incorrectly handles HEAD
requests - it acts as though they are GET requests, returning
both the headers and content. So, not only does represent a way
in which mod_cgi and Apache::Registry are different, but
Apache::Registry is not RFC compliant and causes trouble with
some modern browsers. This module attempts to correct the wrong
in Apache::Registry by intercepting headers much in the way that
mod_perl does, but then respecting the value of $r->header_only.
NOTES Apache::HEADRegistry is a subclass of Apache::RegistryNG,
which means that it doesn't behave _exactly_ the same as
Apache::Registry. Namely, it uses the filename of the script to
determine the unique package
