World: r3wp

dehex: no, I'm using the native one.

(I hate to be nagging but... any answers to my how-to-write-a-module-question?)

well, I have this:

probe request/content
	street1: url-encode any [ select request/content 'street1 "" ]
print <br/>	
?? street1
print <br/>

probe dehex street1
print <br/>

and I'm not getting the correct answer back!

Maarten, put your order in the httpd.conf file as well.

Marteen: sorry, I've missed your question. Yes, you got it for the 
starting part.

( or mod rather)

OK, now about the ordering... How does that work?

In the modules body you have to implement callbacks (HTTPd phases) 
if you want your module to react on requests. The order is just the 
position of your module's callback for a give phase, among the list 
of other modules.

(You should create a macro key for this answer  Doc)

I should finish the docs :-)

Yep :-)

Thanks, I'll be looking into this a bit more.

Yeah, It's pretty easy once you get your head around it.

Doc, you should create a basic hello world module.

Marteen: see the %docs/developer-guide.html and look at mod-static 
implementation.

There's also the WORD part in modules, allowing you to add config 
options to the httpd.cfg config file, but currently undocumented.

What kind of module are you writing Maarten?

Marteen: you should turn on verbose mode either using -vv (or -vvv) 
option in command line or setting in %cheyenne.r : services/httpd/verbose: 
2

it will show you what module answers on each phase.

How about the listening ports... can you receive a msg on one port, 
and respond on the other?

Terry: sure, but that's no more HTTP protocol ;-)

ftp ?

We'll call it HTTPextreme

lol

or HTTPBigBrother

can we do ftp in uniserve yet?

Just thinking of relaying to my Flash script embedded into the page.

FTP server, a service that I wanted to add to UniServe since a long 
time...

doable?

Ie: I can read a page from my server, and when some particular IP 
reads as well, it can push a message to my page.

that kind of thing

So I can get messages like "Graham just tried circumventing your 
Captcha" messages popping up dynamically on my page ;)

mod-router - a module that routes request based on a sitemap

Sure, but may need some improvement in UniServe to make services 
collaboration more flexible. I guess it can be done with the current 
UniServe and the uniserve/shared context to make the ftp-cmd and 
ftp-data port collaborate.

Could do some kind of load balancing as well.

I have some simple ftp server code... but not for uniserve.. maybe 
I could try to rewrite it.. but first I want to improve my proxy 
server:)

Maarten, there's some 404 discussions earlier in this group.

mod-router: you mean being able to translate the request URLs for 
a whole site, based on a sitemap description ?

that could be useful when refactoring a whole web site that is already 
deeply indexed by search bots and want to keep  it's high ranking...

Yep

Or when you wat to translate: http://site?aap=noot&q=wto http://site/aap/noot/q/w

Very cool module, Marteen, I already have a customer where I might 
use it !

that's mod-rewrite

I'm sure Will would be also very interested.

I think it should be easy because the trick is to allow a set of 
parse rules for the translation in a sitemap.cfg for this module. 
That way you can utilize parse's full expressiveness :-)

Where is Will's mod-rewrite?

the link is somewhere here, beyond my 300 msgs threshold

got it : "global and per domain rewrite rules,  http://reboot.ch/mod-rewrite.r
or http://reboot.ch/mod-rewrite.r.zipalpha quality, whatch out ;-)"
