The Eagle book says this is a perfectly valid concept.
Well, for one thing, it would only call the handler if a request to that virtual host was the first request for that child. Assuming it works; I'd think this would be a good canidate for a case that's never been tested before, due to the fact that it would not call the handler if the request that initiated the child was not to that virtual host... It would fail to work in all cases if Apache does not recognize what triggered the child until after child init. Looking over pages 59 through 61, 72 and 73, this appears to me to be the case. Yes, it does explicitly say that it's ok in virtual host blocks, but it doesn't say it works. Ed
