Synopsis
Header <set|append|add|unset>:header [value]
[server config, or within
<VirtualHost> or
<Directory>, or
.htaccess]
This directive allows administrators to
merge, remove, or replace HTTP headers that are transmitted with
server documents. The header action performed is specified after the
Header directive; it can be one of four choices:
-
set The header specified is reset to the value specified.
-
append A header is appended to the specified response header, if it exists. The new value is listed after the old value and is separated by a comma.
-
add A new header is created and added to the response headers, even if one already exists.
-
unset This option deletes the first occurrence of the header in question.
Headers such as Date and Server
cannot be overridden using this directive.
