<h3>Summary</h3>
 
34
 
 
35
    <p>This module is designed for the use in test suites and large
 
36
    networks which have to deal with different httpd versions and
 
37
    different configurations. It provides a new container -- <code class="directive"><a href="#ifversion">&lt;IfVersion&gt;</a></code>, which
 
38
    allows a flexible version checking including numeric comparisons and
 
39
    regular expressions.</p>

    <p>The <code class="directive">&lt;IfVersion&gt;</code> section encloses

77
    matches the desired criteria. For normal (numeric) comparisons the
 
78
    <var>version</var> argument has the format
 
79
    <code><var>major</var>[.<var>minor</var>[.<var>patch</var>]]</code>, e.g.
 
80
    <code>2.1.0</code> or <code>2.2</code>. <var>minor</var> and
 
81
    <var>patch</var> are optional. If these numbers are omitted, they are
 
82
    assumed to be zero. The following numerical <var>operator</var>s are
 
83
    possible:</p>
