OK, I do not mind adjusting my config so that only one "publisher" is used. If I were to do this:SetHandler python-program PythonHandler quixote.mod_python_handler PythonOption quixote-root-namespace myrootnamespace PythonInterpreter myinterp SetHandler python-program PythonHandler quixote.mod_python_handler PythonOption quixote-root-namespace myrootnamespace PythonInterpreter myinterp there would be no difference between http://.../willows/ and /dict/ ? That isn't quite what I'd want. Is it possible to bind quixote neatly (via the above method) to / ? So that http://localhost/ would be served by quixote? But at the same time have it serve most directories within the root as normal directories, i.e. not via quixote? I guess my regular expression in LocationMatch would have to become something containing a list of excludes? I will go touch up on my regular expressions tomorrow. ;) In the past I've used mod_python directly, where my urls looked something like /show/norm - so I added show/norm to my DirectoryIndex directive. In the process of converting my whole site to quixote, I want to fix these ugly url's though. Thanks, Hugo van der Merwe
