A document description consists of several header + records; records may be continued on multiple lines if the + continuation lines start with spaces. The leading space will be + deleted and the lines concatenated. A header record consists of + a keyword name, which always ends in a colon, followed by a + value. Whitespace is allowed between the header name and value, + and between the tokens of value. The headers allowed are: </p> + + <dl> + <dt><code>Content-Encoding:</code></dt> + <dd>The encoding of the file. Apache only recognizes + encodings that are defined by an <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mod_mime.html#addencoding">AddEncoding</a></code> directive. + This normally includes the encodings <code>x-compress</code> + for compress'd files, and <code>x-gzip</code> for gzip'd + files. The <code>x-</code> prefix is ignored for encoding + comparisons.</dd> + + <dt><code>Content-Language:</code></dt> + <dd>The language(s) of the variant, as an Internet standard + language tag (<a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1766.txt">RFC 1766</a>). An example is <code>en</code>, + meaning English. If the variant contains more than one + language, they are separated by a comma.</dd> + + <dt><code>Content-Length:</code></dt> + <dd>The length of the file, in bytes. If this header is not + present, then the actual length of the file is used.</dd> + + <dt><code>Content-Type:</code></dt> + + <dd> + The MIME media type of the document, with optional + parameters. Parameters are separated from the media type + and from one another by a semi-colon, with a syntax of + <code>name=value</code>. Common parameters include: + + <dl> + <dt><code>level</code></dt> + <dd>an integer specifying the version of the media type. + For <code>text/html</code> this defaults to 2, otherwise + 0.</dd> + + <dt><code>qs</code></dt> + <dd>a floating-point number with a value in the range 0.0 + to 1.0, indicating the relative 'quality' of this variant + compared to the other available variants, independent of + the client's capabilities. For example, a jpeg file is + usually of higher source quality than an ascii file if it + is attempting to represent a photograph. However, if the + resource being represented is ascii art, then an ascii + file would have a higher source quality than a jpeg file. + All <code>qs</code> values are therefore specific to a given + resource.</dd> + </dl> + + <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code> + Content-Type: image/jpeg; qs=0.8 + </code></p></div> + </dd> + + <dt><code>URI:</code></dt> + <dd>uri of the file containing the variant (of the given + media type, encoded with the given content encoding). These + are interpreted as URLs relative to the map file; they must + be on the same server (!), and they must refer to files to + which the client would be granted access if they were to be + requested directly.</dd> + + <dt><code>Body:</code></dt> + <dd>New in Apache 2.0, the actual content of the resource may + be included in the type-map file using the Body header. This + header must contain a string that designates a delimiter for + the body content.
