 +| FileVPathForVHosts       | ''false''        | If you'd like your virtual hosts to provide HTTP access to your file bases (using virtual file paths), set this to ''true'' |
 +| OutbufDrainTimeout       | ''10''           | Number of milliseconds to wait for output buffer to drain |
 +| TempDirectory            | ''../temp/''     | Override default temporary file directory |
 +| Options                  |                  | See below for details |
 +
 +=== Options ===
 +
 +The ''Options'' key is set to a ''|'' separated list of options to enable.  
 +
 +Default value: **''NO_HOST_LOOKUP | HTTP_LOGGING | NO_CGI''**
 +
 +In addition to the [[config:sbbs.ini|standard options]], the web server also supports the following:
 +
 +== DEBUG_RX ==
 +
 +Log all received data to the console log, as well as various
 +extra bits related to receiving data.
 +
 +== DEBUG_TX ==
 +
 +Log all transmitted data except the reply body itself, as well
 +as various extra bits of information related to transmitted
 +data.
 +
 +== DEBUG_SSJS ==
 +
 +Log server-side JavaScript execution details.
 +
 +== VIRTUAL_HOSTS ==
 +
 +Supports name-based virtual hosts.  If your system has multiple
 +host names, you can have each host name return unique content
 +depending on which hostname is used.  ie: if
 +''freebsd.synchro.net'' and ''nix.synchro.net'' both resolved to your
 +system, you could have FreeBSD-specific pages on one, and 
 +general *nix stuff on the other.
 +
 +A virtual host is added by simply putting the desired content
 +into a sub-directory of [[#RootDirectory]] with the desired hostname
 +ie: ''web/root/freebsd.synchro.net/'' if the browser doesn't send
 +the request host name (very old browsers, or some automated
 +tools) they will be served out of document root.
 +It is therefore a good idea to put links to your various
 +virtual hosts in an ''index.html'' page in [[#RootDirectory]] something
 +like this:
 +<code html>
 +<html>
 +  <head>
 +    <title>Old Browser</title>
 +  </head>
 +  <body>
 +    Your browser is either too old to support
 +    name-based virtual hosts, or you have visited a
 +    virtual hosts that is not yet configured.  The
 +    following are hosted here:<br>
 +    <a href="freebsd.synchro.net">freebsd.synchro.net</a><br>
 +    <a href="nix.synchro.net">nix.synchro.net</a><br>
 +  </body>
 +</html>
 +</code>
 +
 +== NO_CGI ==
 +
 +Disable CGI/FastCGI script execution.
 +
 +== HTTP_LOGGING ==
 +
 +Enable logging to a Common Logfile Format log as described in
 +the HttpLogFile section.  Usefull for running log analysis
 +programs (like Webalizer: http://www.mrunix.net/webalizer/)
 +
 +== NO_JAVASCRIPT ==
 +
 +Disable SSJS execution.
 +
 +== ALLOW_TLS ==
 +
 +Enable TLS/SSL support.
 +
 +== HSTS_SAFE ==
 +
 +Indicates that all URLs available via http are also available via https and redirects clients who want a TLS session to the https location.

-===== The SSJS Template System ===== 
-The default web pages use a SSJS Template engine which also allows for Theme  
-support. 
- 
-[Note:  With this latest implementation of SSJS, @@ codes no longer can be nested.] 
- 
- 
-==== The SSJS Template Scheme ==== 
- 
-Each page consists of four parts: 
- 
-=== The Header  === 
-  ../web/templates/default/header.inc   
- 
-This file contains the basic requirements for the HTML page. 
-The opening HTML, doctype, title, CSS file link, etc.  The 
-header file includes the open body, System Name, and User  
-greeting plus the initial page layout table start.  The rest 
-of the layout is continued in the next files. 
- 
-=== Top Navigation === 
- 
-  ../web/templates/default/topnav.inc 
-  ../web/lib/topnav_html.ssjs 
- 
-The ''topnav.inc'' file contains the basic design of the "breadcrumbs" 
-The links are dynamically generated by ''topnav_html.ssjs'' so both 
-files need to be addressed when modifying or creating themes. 
-In the case of the default layout, ''topnav.inc'' has a left and right  
-graphic and a middle section that the dynamic content goes.  The 
-background image is handled by CSS.  You can change this to anything 
-you like. 
- 
-The ''topnav_html.ssjs'' file may seem daunting at first, but it is  
-pretty straight forward.  It has a series of if statements that 
-check the current page location and sets up the breadcrumbs based 
-on what you want it to say. 
- 
-For example: 
-You want to add a Links page called links.html in the main  
-directory.  You would add a check for the path to links.html 
-as: 
- 
-<code javascript> 
-if(http_request.virtual_path=="/links.html") 
-    template.topnav.push({html: '<span class="tlink">Some Links</span>'}); 
-</code>    
-   
-=== Left Side Navigation === 
- 
-  ../web/templates/default/leftnav.inc 
-  ../web/lib/leftnav_nodelist.ssjs 
-  ../web/lib/leftnav_html.ssjs 
- 
-This starts the main table layout in the default layout and also 
-provides two other things -- the main navigation links and a brief 
-nodelisting that displays when users are online via telnet. 
-The links are dynamically created as in the Top Navigation example 
-above with the exception of the two static links. 
- 
-=== Main Content (various files) === 
- 
-This is where the layout of the main content is created.  It is best 
-to look at the various files in ''../web/templates/default'' 
-''../web/templates/default/msgs'' to see how the code is displayed for the 
-various functions of the Web side of Synchronet.  Some details on what 
-each of the special codes contained in those files do will follow. 
- 
-=== Footer === 
-   
-  ../web/templates/default/footer.inc 
-   
-This file contains the closing HTML and whatever bottom information 
-you would like. In the case of the default layout, the 
-Web Server/Synchronet versions and the XHTML 1.0 logo.  Links to 
-privacy statements or anything else can be placed here and they will  
-be displayed at the bottom of each page. 
- 
- 
-==== SSJS Theme Support ==== 
- 
-Theme Layouts can be added to Synchronet by creating them and placing the 
-*.inc files in their own directory under ../web/templates/ 
- 
-Themes are activated by editing the ../web/templates/html_themes.ssjs file. 
-This file contains: 
-<code javascript> 
-/* Set default theme name */ 
-var DefaultTheme="Default"; 
- 
-/* Edit this bit to add/remove/modify theme descriptions and dirs */ 
-Themes["Default"]=new Object; 
-Themes["Default"].desc="Default Synchronet Theme"; 
-Themes["Default"].dir="default"; 
-Themes["Default"].css="/synchronet.css";  
-</code> 
- 
-Themes are added by editing below the Default Theme such as: 
-<code javascript> 
-Themes["CoolTheme"]=new Object; 
-Themes["CoolTheme"].desc="My Cool Theme"; 
-Themes["CoolTheme"].dir="cooltheme"; 
-Themes["CoolTheme"].css="/cooltheme.css"; 
-</code> 
-To change the Default Theme, change: 
- 
-<code javascript> 
-var DefaultTheme="Default"; 
-</code>  
-to: 
-<code javascript> 
-var DefaultTheme="CoolTheme"; 
-</code> 
- 
-==== Special Codes Used in the SSJS Template System ==== 
- 
-By looking at at the message related files located in templates/default/msgs, 
-it can be seen that some special codes are used to display dynamically created 
-content. It is very important to maintain the information EXACTLY as seen in 
-each file or else the messaging system will fail.  While how it is displayed 
-can be changed, the correct information will only be dispayed by following the 
-format in the *.inc files. 
- 
-For example the groups.inc: 
-<code html> 
-<!-- Main Content -->   
-     
-<td class="main" valign="top"><br /> 
- 
-<table class="grouplist" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2"> 
-<tr> 
-<th class="grouplist">Message Group</th><th class="grouplist">Subs</th> 
-</tr> 
-<<REPEAT groups>> 
-<tr> 
-  <td class="grouplist"> 
-      <a class="grouplist" href="subs.ssjs?msg_grp=^^groups:name^^"> 
-          %%groups:description%%</a></td> 
-  <td class="grouplist" align="right"> 
-      @@JS:msg_area.grp_list[RepeatObj.index].sub_list.length@@</td> 
-</tr> 
-<<END REPEAT groups>> 
-</table> 
-<br /> 
- 
-<!-- end Main Content --> 
-</code> 
- 
-While the table layout can be changed or even eliminated, the information 
-within the <<REPEAT groups>> and <<END REPEAT groups>> must remain intact. 
-To remove the table yet keep the correct infomation, the resulting groups.inc 
-would be changed to (while maintaining the main table layout in this case) to: 
-<code html> 
-<!-- Main Content -->   
-     
-    <td class="main" valign="top"><br /> 
- 
-  <<REPEAT groups>> 
-    <a class="grouplist" href="subs.ssjs?msg_grp=^^groups:name^^"> 
-        %%groups:description%%</a> 
-    @@JS:msg_area.grp_list[RepeatObj.index].sub_list.length@@<br /> 
-  <<END REPEAT groups>> 
- 
-  <br /> 
- 
-  <!-- end Main Content --> 
-</code> 
- 
-This principle applies to all the .inc files in msgs respectively. 
-

-''%%name%%'' is replaced with the HTML encoded value of template.name 
- 
-i.e.; Spaces are replaced with: ''this&nbsp;is&nbsp;html'' 
- 
-''^^name^^'' is replaced with the URI encoded value of template.name 
- 
-i.e.; Spaces are replaced with:  ''this%20is%20URI'' 
-           
-''@@name@@'' is replaced with the value if ''template.name'' 
- 
-No changes or encoding is performed. 
- 
-''@@name:sname@@'' is replaced with the value of ''template.name.sname'' 
-(^^ and %% are also supported) 
- 
-''@@JS:js_expression@@'' is replaced with the return value of ''js_expression'' 
-(^^ and %% are also supported) 
- 
-<code javascript> 
-<<REPEAT name>> 
-  @@name:sname@@ 
-<<END REPEAT name>> 
-</code> 
- 
-Iterates over the array/object ''template.name'' and replaces ''name:sname'' with  
-the value of ''template.name.sname''. 
-(^^ and %% are also supported) 
- 
- 
-==== SSJS Message Configuration ==== 
- 
-Configuration settings for the SSJS Messaging system is located in the 
-''../web/lib/msgsconfig.ssjs'' file: 
-<code javascript> 
-max_messages=20; 
-max_pages=30; 
-next_msg_html="Next Message"; 
-prev_msg_html="Previous Message"; 
-next_page_html="NEXT"; 
-prev_page_html="PREV"; 
-showall_subs_enable_html="Show all subs"; 
-showall_subs_disable_html="Show subs in new scan only"; 
-show_messages_all_html="Show all messages"; 
-show_messages_yours_html="Show messages to you only"; 
-show_messages_your_unread_html="Show unread messages to you only"; 
-show_messages_spacer_html="&nbsp;<b>|</b>&nbsp;"; 
-anon_only_message="Message will be posted anonymously"; 
-anon_allowed_message='<input type="checkbox" name="anonymous" value="Yes" /> Post message anonymously'; 
-anon_reply_message='<input type="checkbox" name="anonymous" value="Yes" checked /> Post message anonymously'; 
-private_only_message="Message will be marked private"; 
-private_allowed_message='<input type="checkbox" name="private" value="Yes" /> Mark message as private'; 
-private_reply_message='<input type="checkbox" name="private" value="Yes" checked /> Mark message as private'; 
-</code> 
- 
-Each of these are configurable. 
- 
-See the actual file for the defaults currently in use. 
- 
-==== Embedded Javascript ==== 
- 
-The ''*.inc'' files can (and do in the default layout) have embedded JavaScript 
-which is parsed by the JavaScript engine.  Care should be taken as a large 
-number of embedded JavaScript in the *.inc files slow down overall processing 
-of pages. 
- 
-Anything contained within ''@@JS: @@'' is processed by the Server-side JavaScript 
-engine. 
- 
-For example, it can check if the user is Guest or an actual user with this line: 
- 
-<code javascript> 
-@@JS:if(user.number==0 || user.security.restrictions&UFLAG_G) '<html code for Guest>'; \ 
-else '<html code for registered user>';@@ 
-</code> 
-         
-What this does is display links specific for Registered Users only to them 
-and not Guest.  There are many things that can be done with ''@@JS: @@'' code. 
-Note, it also can be used to display HTML based on location as in the 
-node listing stuff. In this case, it checks for whether or not a user is 
-online, or if the user is anywhere but the Who's Online page before displaying 
-the Left side node listing. 
- 
-IMPORTANT!  Anything contained within ''@@JS: @@ MUST'' be on one line or there 
-will be errors in parsing. 
- 
-==== global_defs.ssjs ==== 
- 
-This version of the Web Layout now includes a new file called 
-''global_defs.ssjs'' It is located in the ''../web/lib'' directory.  This file can 
-be used for creating global definitions that span all pages of a site. 
-For example: 
- 
-<code javascript> 
-template.user_alias=user.alias; 
-</code> 
  
-Now ''@@user_alias@@'' can be in any ''*.inc'' template files and it will display the +==== Extra global variables ====
-user's alias.+
  
-Care should be exercised when using this file as loading it up with hundreds +=== web_root_dir === 
-of predefined definitions may slow down overall page rendering as the file is +The path to the web server's document root directory.
-loaded on every page.  It would be better to just put a few popular  +
-definitions that are truly global rather many definitions.  It would be +
-inefficient to have thirty of forty message definitions being loaded when a +
-user is looking at the statistics page.+
  
 +See also: the RootDirectory key under [Web] in [[config:sbbs.ini]].
