Those are both fine. The 404 handler approach will give slightly better performance for your static pages. Other ways people handle this include using an extension that is different for the dynamic URLs (*.phtml or something), or using Location directives to map specific URLs to handlers. The latter is a good way to do it if you have just a few dynamic URLs or if they can all be grouped in a certain "directory" like /reports/*. > If I do set my script to answer all requests, how do I tell the > webserver to show the static content that exists under the requested > url? You have to make the default handler pick it up. I forget the exact syntax, but there were some examples posted to the mailing list a while back. - Perrin
