Please wrap all code, data/files, input & output/errors in CODE tags.
It makes them easier to read and preservces spacing for indented code or fixed-width data.

apache_note - Get and set apache request notes

SYNOPSIS
string apache_note (string $note_name, [string $note_value = ""]) DESCRIPTION
This function is a wrapper for Apache's table_get and table_set. It edits the table of notes that exists during a request. The table's purpose is to allow Apache modules to communicate. The main use for apache_note(3) is to pass information from one module to another within the same request. PARAMETERS
o $note_name - The name of the note. o $note_value - The value of the note. RETURN VALUES
If called with one argument, it returns the current value of note note_name. If called with two arguments, it sets the value of note note_name to note_value and returns the previous value of note note_name. If the note cannot be retrieved, FALSE is returned. EXAMPLES
Example #1 Passing information between PHP and Perl <?php apache_note('name', 'Fredrik Ekengren'); // Call perl script virtual("/perl/some_script.pl"); $result = apache_note("resultdata"); ?> # Get Apache request object my $r = Apache->request()->main(); # Get passed data my $name = $r->notes('name'); # some processing # Pass result back to PHP $r->notes('resultdata', $result); Example #2 Logging values in access.log <?php apache_note('sessionID', session_id()); ?> # "%{sessionID}n" can be used in the LogFormat directive SEE ALSO
