The publisher makes this decision. It's not a simple decision to make because a dot also serves as package.module separator in Python, so the publisher has to make an intelligent guess on what you meant. E.g. if you have AddHandler mod_python .py .blah Wheh you ask for main.blah, the publisher will drop the blah as the extension and import module main. If you ask for main.bleh, it will assume you meant module bleh in package main. If you have SetHandler mod_python Then there is no initial list of suffixes to look at. Actually there *is* (imp.get_suffixes()), but the publisher wasn't doing it, so in the particular instance sited earlier in this thread, the documentation was right and the publisher was wrong, and I think we fixed it correctly this time for the next release.
