Thanks for the suggestion of using EMBPERL_OBJECT_ADDPATH. Unfortunately,
I've tried that and it doesn't work.
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs/mybookprices
DirectoryIndex index.html
ErrorLog logs/error_log
TransferLog logs/access_log
EMBPERL_APPNAME mybookprices
EMBPERL_SESSION_HANDLER_CLASS no
EMBPERL_DEBUG 0
EMBPERL_ESCMODE 0
EMBPERL_OPTIONS 16
EMBPERL_OBJECT_BASE base.epl
EMBPERL_OBJECT_FALLBACK notfound.html
EMBPERL_OBJECT_STOPDIR /usr/local/apache/htdocs
EMBPERL_OBJECT_ADDPATH /usr/local/apache/htdocs
It appears that EMBPERL_OBJECT_ADDPATH cannot add a path that is not within
DocumentRoot, even though base.epl AND notfound.html are outside
DocumentRoot. So, if Apache servers up both of these files which are outside
DocumentRoot, why won't it serve up content.hml with [-Execute ('*') -].
Also note, that [- Execute ('content.html') within base.epl WORKS!
So, this leads me to believe it is a problem with ('*') which is asking for
the file "indirectly" instead of explicitly.

If you want common base files for a lot of things then have a look at
EMBPERL_OBJECT_ADDPATH
I usually have this directory within the document tree but I don't
think thats necessary (off the top of my head)
