texte = Here's the problem. WebDNA has a redirect command. That command uses a 302 HTTP status code. The 302 code means temporarily moved. I need to use a 301/permanently moved redirect. For a variety of reasons, it is not sufficient to use 302. The way it works in Apache is to use a rewriterule directive. I can't use that since the number of rules I'd have is in the tens of thousands and I may need to do something more complicated. This means rewritemap is the better directive. Rewritemap can use a program that provides stdout from the Unix shell. Now I have to use PHP or Perl unless WebDNA can be used to provide stdout. A much simpler alternative would be the ability to specify the redirect as a 301 in the WebDNA command. For example: [redirect url=http://www.domain.com/index.htm&statuscode=301] Is there any chance of that? I don't think pre-parse won't work for me here but please let me know if I'm wrong. -----Original Message----- From: Donovan Brooke Sent: Tue, 19 Apr 2005 07:50:21 -0500 To: "WebDNA Talk" Subject: Re: WebDNA to Apache RewriteMap devaulw@onebox.com wrote: > Any chance I can use WebDNA to act as an external rewriting > program for the Apache RewriteMap directive or should I stick to perl? > > Or, even more broadly, is there a chance WebDNA will be > usuable (now or in a future release) as a command line program/shell > scripting language for Unix?
