Uggggg! Yes, this is more or less the basis of my suggestion: a separate API which would bypass the configuration setup. I think it is a dumb idea in general to use it, but it is much better than changing the ns_return API. My original suggestion to use something like ns_returnz was for testing and/or hacking. The configuration part of this code could be more difficult to get right than a simple new command. Like I said in a previous note, you could use a url pattern as a switch, but the idea of using the mime type is probably even better. In addition, it is very likely that this information will be available at the correct time, and the compression operation will always require modification of the headers, so mime type triggers seem very good. tom jackson -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
