<header class="doc-page-header"><h1>Script Handler</h1><div class="doc-page-intro">LiteSpeed Web Server supports all scripting languages including Perl, PHP, Ruby, Python, Java, etc. Scripts written in these different languages must be brought to the appropriate external application to be processed. LiteSpeed Web Server uses script handlers to decide which external application a script should go to. These script handlers map files to external applications by using the file suffix. (Actually, the suffix is used to determine a MIME type which is then mapped to the external application.) External applications must be set up in the External Application tab before they can be selected for use in a script handler. <br /><br /> You can set up script handlers at the server or virtual host level. Server-level script handlers apply to all virtual hosts unless overridden at the virtual host level. Virtual host-level script handlers only apply within that virtual host.</div>
