running quixote 0.41 on win nt4, apache 1.3, mod_python

I'm new to web programming, so apologies if this is a stupid question.

Some effort is made so that both /qdemo/ and /qdemo work as a URL.

/qdemo/simple works /qdemo/simple/ doesn't (is it because there are no
further options after simple?)

/qdemo/12/ works but /qdemo/12 doesn't. (there are further options after 12,
so to be consistent, shouldn't /qdemo/12 work like /qdemo does?)

Could someone explain?

Thanks,

Ray Drew
