------- Additional Comments From paul@murph.org 2002-04-14 19:33 -------
I have done a bit more digging and found that this problem is not mod_autoindex
specific, but more mod_include specific, so have changed the description
from "DOCUMENT_URI incorrect in mod_autoindex header" to "Include variables not
inherited correctly in mod_include" and updated the category accordingly. My
patch to revert to 1.3.x behaviour for mod_autoindex does not fix the problem I
have discovered with nested include files.

I have also set up some more specific test pages at
http://www.murph.org:81/test/ (Apache 1.3.22) and http://www.murph.org:82/test/
(Apache 2.0.35) (my port 80 server is now 2.0.35).

The variables which should be inherited from the document requested by the user
(not necessarily the current .shtml file) are:

DOCUMENT_NAME
DOCUMENT_URI
LAST_MODIFIED

This behaviour is documented at:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_include.html#includevars


The main reason for me wanting this behaviour is to have a standard footer
included as <!--#include virtual="/include/footer" --> on each page (using
MultiViews as well so that I can change the type and/or language of the footer
file at a later date, if desired, without updating all of the individual pages).
