Re: is it possible to modify the body of a http post using a input filter?

Ok - I will give mod_sed a try though I will have to compile it. Hopefully it will work in the version of apache. Yeah - i thought that was a bad idea though putting the config in <Location> did not work either.

Thanks

Not sure OTTOMH if that should work.  But using the same _expression_
with mod_sed would certainly be a far better solution.

Now that's badly wrong.  You're exposing your entire filesystem
(GOTO security 101) while at the same time probably not configuring
the filter to apply to your application.  You should configure the filter
(mod_sed) in the same scope (likely a <Location>) as the handler
for your application.
