The <Files> directive is the right way to go. Are you sure you are returning OK in your Handler? If you return something else (like DECLINED) then Apache will take over the request and handle it in the default manner (ie look up the file). Returning OK lets Apache know that the request was dealt with appropriately and it can move on to the next phase. Cees
