    Resolved [RESOLVED] HEAD Requests, Apache, and So On

    If you redirect all HTTP requests to a single PHP script by use of a RewriteRule, how do you then handle HEAD requests?

    Does Apache kill the response body automatically when serving the response? Or do you have to calculate the length etc. yourself?

    The same as you would normally. The script is still executed and response data is discarded is irrelevant.
