-The optional headers module allows for the customization of HTTP
-response headers. Headers can be merged, replaced or removed. The
-directives described in this document are only available if Apache is
-compiled with <STRONG>mod_headers.c</STRONG>.

-
-This directive can replace, merge or remove HTTP response headers. The
-action it performs is determined by the first argument. This can be one
-of the following values:
-
-<UL>
-<LI><STRONG>set</STRONG><BR>
- The response header is set, replacing any previous header with this name
-
-<LI><STRONG>append</STRONG><BR>
- The response header is appended to any existing header of the same
- name. When a new value is merged onto an existing header it is
- separated from the existing header with a comma. This is the HTTP standard
- way of giving a header multiple values.
-
-<LI><STRONG>add</STRONG><BR>
- The response header is added to the existing set of headers, even if
- this header already exists. This can result in two (or more) headers
- having the same name. This can lead to unforeseen consequences, and in
- general "append" should be used instead.
-
-<LI><STRONG>unset</STRONG><BR>
- The response header of this name is removed, if it exists. If there are
- multiple headers of the same name, only the first one set will be removed.
-</UL>
-
-This argument is followed by a header name, which can include the
-final colon, but it is not required. Case is ignored. For
-add, append and set a value is given as the third argument. If this
-value contains spaces, it should be surrounded by double quotes.
-For unset, no value should be given.
-
-<H3>Order of Processing</H3>
-
-The Header directive can occur almost anywhere within the server
-configuration. It is valid in the main server config and virtual host
-sections, inside &lt;Directory&gt;, &lt;Location&gt; and &lt;Files&gt;
-sections, and within .htaccess files.
-<P>
-The Header directives are processed in the following order:
-<OL>
-<LI>main server
-<LI>virtual host
-<LI>&lt;Directory&gt; sections and .htaccess
-<LI>&lt;Location&gt;
-<LI>&lt;Files&gt;
-</OL>
-
-Order is important. These two headers have a different effect if reversed:
-<PRE>
-Header append Author "John P. Doe"
-Header unset Author
-</PRE>
-
-This way round, the Author header is not set. If reversed, the Author
-header is set to "John P. Doe".
-<P>
-
-The Header directives are processed just before the response is sent
-by its handler. These means that some headers that are added just
-before the response is sent cannot be unset or overridden. This
-includes headers such as "Date" and "Server".
