There is the base mod_python system and then there is mod_python.publisher which builds on top of the base system. When you use the base mod_python system, ie., AddHandler python-program .py PythonHandler mptest all requests under that directory with a ".py" extension are routed through through the "mptest.py" handler file. When you use publisher, ie., AddHandler python-program .py PythonHandler mod_python.publisher it is overlaying a dispatch mechanism on top of the directory. That is, the mod_python.publisher system allows you to put published methods in multiple files in the directory with each distinct function having a unique URL. A function will only be called when its corresponding URL is used. In the base system, it didn't really matter what the URL path contained as long as it had a ".py" extension. Thus, they are two distinct things and you need to be clear which one you are talking about. If you don't have PythonHandler set to either of the above values then you are likely using yet another system on top of mod_python which will likely behave in different ways again.
