Use POST parameter to retrieve content from memcached?

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to retrieve content from memcached using a POST request parameter as a key? As in, if the POST request had a "x=1" parameter, I would look into memcached to see if there is something whose key is "1", if there is, I would get the corresponding value from memcached. Right now I've installed the modmemcache module from http://code.google.com/p/modmemcachecache/

First of all, I'm new to Apache configuration, but there doesn't seem to exist a directive that says "look in cache and try to retrieve this request" (in Nginx, using the Nginx memcached module the $memcached_key directive does this...) Secondly, is there a way at all to get the parameters in a POST request? (in Nginx this was NOT possible...)

Really appreciate your help!

I doubt you'll find such a solution. post requests are intended to change data on your host. Caching makes not much sense in these cases. But be that as it may, the apache caching guide defines post requests as uncacheable, and most module developers will stick to such definitions.
