-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For those setting up GoServe-based websites, and especially those
already using my GoHTTP.v20 filter script, version 2.01.9-M of the GoHTTP
filter system is now available.
For those not familiar with my system, I've been making my filter available
since GoServe was v1.20, whenever that was... ;-) The GoHTTP system
provides most everything a good web site needs:
- Imagemap {via an internal engine for speed} support
- CGI/1.1 capability
- User authentication & access control by directory
- Common Log Format logging
- Support for the URL caching feature of GoServe v2.11+
- multiple path aliasing
- multiple CGI directory support
- local overrides for most global defaults
- A URL redirection sub-service, w/ opt. warning page
- A load balancing feature - allows passing excess load to another server
- and more...
For more info, look to: http://w3.ag.uiuc.edu/DLM/GoHTTP/
New features in the 2.01.9-M release:
* Incorporated several of Albert Crosby's modifications:
- Albert's Dynamic Directory List function
- Multiple default index page names
(will search using an internal list for default pages.)
- Ability to "chain" to secondary filters upon failure of primary filter to
resolve request.
- "Footer" function - adds a standard footer to HTML documents.
- "Special" function for executing local commands and returning results.
* Incorporated Mike Cowlishaw's Server-Side Includes subsystem
* Added support for Mike's DoPush() sample Server-push demonstration.
* Now allows recursive alias processing
* plus various fixes, especially to CGI & Imagemap code.
The system can be directly downloaded from:
http://w3.ag.uiuc.edu/DLM/GoHTTP/GoHTTP.2019.zip
(But do remember the GoHTTP Home page -- a small set of setup guides
is available there.)
