Please dirrect me -- headers ????
This isn't necessarily PHP specific, but I'm looking for more information on
HTTP headers. I'd like to know what headers I should send and why. I want my code to send out w3c compliant HTML. I'm confused on exactly what headers do, and the difference between HTTP headers and information contained within the <HEAD> tag. Multiple google searches have gotten me only more confused. Someone please send me in the right direction :) on an a possible similar note, I have a domain name www.mydom1.com and when the user goes to it, I want it so say www.mydom.com in the browser address bar. Can I do this by sending certain headers? (I have both domains pointing to the same server) ... should/could I do something like this through PHP or is there something I can set in Apache to do the same thing? Simply confused, - Anthony

Re: [PHP] Please dirrect me -- headers ????
yes, I can edit the httpd.conf file. I'm looking in the Apache 2.0 docs and
can't find the server directive. Also, to my knowledge and according to the docs, "alias mydom.com" is invalid. "Alias URL-path file-path|directory-path" is how the docs explain it. Am I missing something. If I can do this through Apache. it would probably be much simpler. - Anthony Apache 2.0.45 by the way :) "Taylor York" <taylor@dreamstargroup.com> wrote in message news:20030714185110.17160.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > Cant you edit the httpd.conf? > I know there might be plenty of reasons why not to...but im just checking. > =) > > Server mydom1.com > Alias mydom.com > > > "Anthony" <atampone@attechcomputer.com> wrote in message > news:20030714174947.55784.qmail@pb1.pair.com... > > Thanks for the links, I'm going through them now.... > > as far as the location thing.
