Hi Graham, thanks for the great material on the topic! More below..

This idea is intriguing. How difficult would this be to implement? I suppose this may be interesting not only for fixup handlers? Another interesting solution would be a generic means (i.e., indipendently of mod-python) of telling Apache about the execution order of modules during configuration. Thinking that other people may have had such needs, I searched the web and noted the --permute--module (I believe build-) option. Would this be a possible solution? While the module execution order sounds like a nice solution, I'm still wondering about the alternative approach of accessing mod-SSL's data. Is there a possibility to access different tables from mod-python than just req.notes and req.connection.notes? Or are these data strictly private to the module that sets them? >Anyway, if you can understand what I am talking about, you might play with >req.add_handler() >and let us know what you find.

I'll definitely play with req.add_handler() but probably after I come back from an upcoming trip.. many thanks! -b >Graham ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
