[mod_python] How can I have sensible URLs?

Hi there!

I have a little bit of understand problem of how the architecture of a
mod_python web application (say web site, if you want) should be.

I would like to have the URLs as if the mod_python scripts were simply some
kind of "special HTML documents", comparable to PHP scripts.

For example, I have written a script named "index.py" which is located on my
document root. So I would expect "http://www.mydomain.com/index.py" to
execute my script (I have set up my Apache so that I can omit the filename, too).
But it doesn't. When I remove the ".py" at the end there is no change to this
too.

So what I have to do is to execute "http://www.mydomain.com/index/method",
provided a method called "method" in my script. This way it works. - But is
there a way to have "HTML-like" or "PHP-like" behavior? Or how do I have to
organize my scripts so that I can have my whole website written in mod_python
and can run it with "http://www.mydomain.com" alone?

Does anyone have a good example about how to do this?

Thanks in advance!
Peter
