variable contains the type of data included. You can create your own content type in the server configuration file and map it to a viewer. For example:

application/x-www-form-urlencoded

PROXY_CONTENT_LENGTH

Content-Length header of the proxy request that is made through HTTPD_proxy. When information is sent with the method of POST, this variable contains the number of characters. Servers typically do not send an end-of-file flag when they forward the information by using stdin. If required, you can use the CONTENT_LENGTH value to determine the end of the input string. For example:

7034

PROXY_METHOD

Method for the request that is made through HTTPD_proxy.

QUERY_STRING_UNESCAPED

The search query sent by the client. This is undefined unless HTML was generated by a CGI program.

REQHDR

Defines a list of the headers that are sent by the client.

REQUEST_CONTENT_TYPE

When information is sent with the method of POST, this variable contains the type of data included. You can create your own content type in the server configuration file and map it to a viewer. For example:

application/x-www-form-urlencoded

RESPONSE_CONTENT_LENGTH

When information is sent with the method of POST, this variable contains the number of characters. Servers typically do not send an end-of-file flag when they forward the information by using stdin. If required, you can use the CONTENT_LENGTH value to determine the end of the input string. For example:

7034

SCRIPT_NAME

URL of the request.

SERVER_ADDR

Local IP address for the server.

SERVER_ROOT

Directory where the server program is installed.

SSI_DIR

The path of the current file relative to SSI_ROOT. If the current file is in SSI_ROOT, this value is /.

SSI_FILE

The file name of the current file.

SSI_INCLUDE

The value that is used in the include command that retrieved this file. This is not defined for the topmost file.

SSI_PARENT

The path and file name of the includer, relative to SSI_ROOT.
