<section id="typemaps"><title>Type maps</title>

    <p>A type map has a format similar to RFC822 mail headers. It

    content-encodings it would have if the client had asked for one

    of them by name. It then chooses the best match to the client's

    requirements, and returns that document.</p>

    <p>The <directive module="mod_mime">MultiViewsMatch</directive>

    directive configures whether Apache will consider files

    that do not have content negotiation meta-information assigned

    to them when choosing files.</p>

</section>

<directivesynopsis>

    <p>Note that this directive only has an effect if a 'best'

    language cannot be determined by any other means or the <directive

    module="mod_negotiation">ForceLanguagePriority</directive> directive

    is not <code>None</code>. Correctly implemented HTTP/1.1 requests

    will mean this directive has no effect.</p>

    is not <code>None</code>. In general, the client determines the

    language preference, not the server.</p>

</usage>
