Re: Apache HTTPD: Read POST request body and set response header

I don't think you want to replace the handler.

I suggest reading how mod_auth_form uses mod_request to do similar
stuff w/ the body before the handler sees it.

I am calling my custom module using SetHandler so I am losing the original server response and response becomes null. Where as, what I want to have is the actual server response to be sent to client and additionally I append one more parameter in response header.
