  33 <h3>Summary</h3>
  34
  35     <p>This module has two directives. The <code class="directive"><a href="#action">Action</a></code> directive lets you run CGI
  36     scripts whenever a file of a certain type is requested. The
  37     <code class="directive"><a href="#script">Script</a></code> directive lets
  38     you run CGI scripts whenever a particular method is used in a
  39     request. This makes it much easier to execute scripts that process
  40     files.</p>

  66     <var>cgi-script</var> when <var>action-type</var> is triggered by the
  67     request.  The <var>cgi-script</var> is the URL-path to a resource
  68     that has been designated as a CGI script using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>.  The
  69     <var>action-type</var> can be either a <a href="../handler.html">handler</a> or a MIME content type. It
  70     sends the URL and file path of the requested document using the
  71     standard CGI PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment
  72     variables.</p>

 106     <p>This directive adds an action, which will activate
 107     <var>cgi-script</var> when a file is requested using the method of
 108     <var>method</var>. The <var>cgi-script</var> is the URL-path to a
 109     resource that has been designated as a CGI script using <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias">ScriptAlias</a></code> or <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addhandler">AddHandler</a></code>.  The URL and
 110     file path of the requested document is sent using the standard CGI
 111     PATH_INFO and PATH_TRANSLATED environment variables.</p>
 112
 113     <div class="note">
 114       Any arbitrary method name may be used. <strong>Method names are
 115       case-sensitive</strong>, so <code>Script PUT</code> and

 117       effects.
 118     </div>
 119
 120     <p>Note that the Script command defines default actions only.
 121     If a CGI script is called, or some other resource that is
 122     capable of handling the requested method internally, it will do
 123     so. Also note that Script with a method of <code>GET</code>
 124     will only be called if there are query arguments present
 125     (<em>e.g.</em>, foo.html?hi). Otherwise, the request will
 126     proceed normally.</p>
