[edit] proxy_pass

The documentation here http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpProxyModule#proxy_pass is not clear to me. The syntax says:

proxy_pass URL

but the examples show a second parameter. This leads to a syntax error. I am a bit shy to edit a reference page mayself, so I would like others to have a look into this.

I do not see any such example. Can you please paste one here? - Cliff

[edit] Meaning of special characters

Is there such a page? For example, what does the caret character mean in rewrite ^ http://example.com/ permanent;? "Beginning of string", as it means in regular expressions?

[edit] The variable $http_host should be explained

See http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpCoreModule#.24host:
"This variable may have a different value from $http_host when the Host input header is absent or has an empty value."

But where is $http_host explained?
