Hi. I'm looking at WebWare (well, WebKit) as a base for Active2
(http://docs.indymedia.org/twiki/bin/view/Devel/ActiVe2 for more), and
I am interested in the extra-path-info stuff, I think.

What I want is (and please point out if there's a better way to do
this):

If I have an HTTPServlet in, say, SomeContext/Main.py and someone
requests a URL like SomeContext/Main/foo/bar/file.ext, then presuming
that no directories exist below SomeContext (i.e. foo/bar/file.ext
doesn't exist), I still want my HTTPServlet to be given a chance to
handle the request (and obviously it would need access to at least
/foo/bar/file.ext).

This looks suspiciously like the stuff in Testing (see Subject:), and
I was wondering: is anyone working on this? (I've checked out the CVS
code, and it still looks the same).

If not, I guess I'll just hack in my own stuff, but it might be better
if this would be useful to WebWare in general. I was thinking:

. if the Application has decided that it will call handleBadUrl due to
  the file not existing, then it should look backwards down the ``bad''
  url until a file with the Right Class defined is found, or a directory
  containing (index,Main) with the Right Class defined and call the
  Appropriate Method.

I don't know what the Right Class or Right Method would be, though, so
if anyone can provide hints...?  (Presumably Servlet and some
subclass/special Transaction?)

Thanks,

- --
