+<h3>Summary</h3>
+
+ <p><code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_charset_lite.html">mod_charset_lite</a></code> allows the server to change
+ the character set of responses before sending them to the client.
+ In an EBCDIC environment, Apache always translates HTTP protocol
+ content (e.g. response headers) from the code page of the Apache
+ process locale to ISO-8859-1, but not the body of responses. In
+ any environment, <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_charset_lite.html">mod_charset_lite</a></code> can be used to
+ specify that response bodies should be translated. For example,
+ if files are stored in EBCDIC, then
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_charset_lite.html">mod_charset_lite</a></code> can translate them to
+ ISO-8859-1 before sending them to the client.</p>
+
+ <p>This module provides a small subset of configuration
+ mechanisms implemented by Russian Apache and its associated
+ <code>mod_charset</code>.</p>

+
+ <h3>Invalid character set names</h3>
+
+ <p>The character set name parameters of <code class="directive"><a href="#charsetsourceenc">CharsetSourceEnc</a></code> and
+ <code class="directive"><a href="#charsetdefault">CharsetDefault</a></code>
+ must be acceptable to the translation mechanism used by
+ <a class="glossarylink" href="../glossary.html#apr" title="see glossary">APR</a> on the system where
+ <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_charset_lite.html">mod_charset_lite</a></code> is deployed. These character
+ set names are not standardized and are usually not the same as
+ the corresponding values used in http headers. Currently, APR
+ can only use iconv(3), so you can easily test your character set
+ names using the iconv(1) program, as follows:</p>
+
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ iconv -f charsetsourceenc-value -t charsetdefault-value
+ </code></p></div>
+
+
+ <h3>Mismatch between character set of content and translation
+ rules</h3>
+
+ <p>If the translation rules don't make sense for the content,
+ translation can fail in various ways, including:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The translation mechanism may return a bad return code,
+ and the connection will be aborted.</li>
+
+ <li>The translation mechanism may silently place special
+ characters (e.g., question marks) in the output buffer when
+ it cannot translate the input buffer.</li>
+ </ul>
