<h3>Summary</h3>

    <p>The <code class="directive">Substitute</code> directive specifies a
    search and replace pattern to apply to the response body.</p>
    
    <p>The meaning of the pattern can be modified by using any
    combination of these flags:</p>
    
    <dl>
        <dt><code>i</code></dt>
        <dd>Perform a case-insensitive match.</dd>
        <dt><code>n</code></dt>
        <dd>By default the pattern is treated as a regular expression.
        Using the <code>n</code> flag forces the pattern to be treated
        as a fixed string.</dd>
        <dt><code>f</code></dt>
        <dd>The <code>f</code> flag causes mod_substitute to flatten the
        result of a substitution allowing for later substitutions to
        take place on the boundary of this one. This is the default.</dd>
        <dt><code>q</code></dt>
        <dd>The <code>q</code> flag causes mod_substitute to not
        flatten the buckets after each substitution. This can
        result in much faster response and a decrease in memory
        utilization, but should only be used if there is no possibility
        that the result of one substitution will ever match a pattern
        or regex of a subsequent one.</dd>
    </dl>
    
    <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code>
        &lt;Location /&gt;
        <span class="indent">
            AddOutputFilterByType SUBSTITUTE text/html<br />
            Substitute s/foo/bar/ni<br />
        </span>
        &lt;/Location&gt;
    </code></p></div>
    
    <p>If either the pattern or the substitution contain a slash
    character then an alternative delimiter should be used:</p>
    
    <div class="example"><h3>Example of using an alternate delimiter</h3><p><code>
        &lt;Location /&gt;
        <span class="indent">
            AddOutputFilterByType SUBSTITUTE text/html<br />
            Substitute "s|&lt;BR */?&gt;|&lt;br /&gt;|i"
        </span>
        &lt;/Location&gt;
