Bug #13351 for CGI-SSI: Passthrough of parent request parameters

Tue Jun 21 12:24:57 2005 Guest - Ticket created

Subject:

Passthrough of parent request parameters

While developing for a local site it became neccessary to pass along cookies , get inputs, and sometimes post inputs, the user_agent, and the orginal referer to an SSI included script from the calling 'parent' script. To complicate matters the SSI included script was hosted on a different server and the cookie contents are variable for each client. I altered the standard SSI.pm to solve this (see attached patch file). There weren't too many changes. Are you interested in rolling these changes into the stock SSI.pm? Thanks

This sounds great. Would you be willing to also write some doc and tests? If so, I'll apply them. If not, let me know and I'll do it myself, but I don't know when. You can see that I use a host (www.bitperfect.com) for testing. Feel free to use that script as well. Thanks! James

Sure I'd be willing. I've not written any tests before, but I'll look through yours and see what I can come up with. As for the documentation, should I include it in the existing pod and send along another patch file?? -- [JAMES - Mon Jun 27 08:43:17 2005]: Show quoted text

Sounds good.

Whatever demand there may once have been for this feature is now seemingly no more. So I'm closing this ticket. James
