Ah, well surely your problem is worse then? I assumed that you were operating at a file-system level, but if you're working with URIs then you can't work out anything unless you're going to read the webserver configuration in. I guess if you make the assumption that there is no re-writing, and that you're not going to access personal web directories, then you're most of the way there and only have to contend with redirections (e.g., meta redirect, etc.) in order to tell what content needs to be served for a particular URL. > > PS, What evil magic on this list makes Evolution1.2 think that > > List-Post is [EMAIL PROTECTED]?!
