mod_ext_filter vs. mod_filter




Posted by Skeptical, 11-04-2010, 10:06 AM
Trying to implement a pretty massive list of text replacement filers. I've used mod_ext_filter in the past, and at times things would hang. Does anyone know of any other way to do search and replace of text? How well does mod_filter work?

I don't recall ever using mod_filter. Have you looked into mod_replace or mod_line_edit or mod_substitute or mod_sed. There are a lot of apache modules for doing search and replace and each one has its strengths and weaknesses. Cheers, Gen <> Last edited by sirius; 11-11-2010 at 07:20 PM.

Well I've only used mod_ext_filter mostly. What are your experiences on these plugins? Which one performs better?

Thats sort of like asking whether a paint brush or a sledge hammer is better, it depends on what you want. Basically you have to read the documentation thats out there. Try searching for each one and reading what it does. Cheers, Gen <> Last edited by sirius; 11-11-2010 at 07:19 PM.
