a lot of times, 'static' content is found via database queries. and sometimes that content needs to be protected from unauthorized viewers, and your authorization mechanisms are already built into your application, so you can't just use Alias/Rewrite directives to still have apache serve up that tree. that said, is there a way to have catalyst defer back to the web server, after deciding not to issue a 403? has anyone experimented with using $c->res->status(-1) for this purpose? _______________________________________________ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
