When I had a scriptalias defined for a directory everything worked OK delivering 2 types of pages (HTML and WML) w/o problems. Unfortunately since the local NIC gave us a domain, I can't reproduce the problem: that is, I can't have a scriptalias for the root of the new domain. The only kludge I found was using .cgi outside the cgi-bin directory and define index.cgi as the default homepage. Not very secure :-| best regards, Miguel Vitorino Telecorreio, lda.
