Filter tips - samples and examples

This page is the index to a number of code fragments that may help you write filters for GoServe. Each is intended as a sample of how certain (mostly Web) functions can be implemented in a GoServe filter.

These code fragments often contain HTML markup, so will be returned as plain text documents.

Here's what's here:

• Ask the client to look elsewhere for a document (automatic relocation)
• Subdirectory-oriented naming
• Return the request header sent by the browser
• Return a snapshot of the audit file
• Return a HOST command result

See also the GOREMOTE.80 filter, included in the GoServe package, for a sample forms processing program (with 'server-side include').
