Looking at the docs, I guess it could happen in PythonTransHandler, PythonHeaderParserHandler or PythonInitHandler It doesn't seem clear to me exactly where the path resolution is done in Apache relative to these handlers... Looking at the mod_python source didn't seem to indicate either PythonTransHandler is designed to resolve the URI to a filename, but the resolution is actually correct, so it would be nice not to interfere before the actual .htaccess file is used... Thanks again David
