Hi All,
I'm having some problems understanding the running order of apaches
protocol handlers.
I have written a simple mod-perl handler that handles all html request.

However I do not want my handler to interfere with RTSP and PNM
requests.
I want the normal protocol actions to be taken when these calls are
made (like apache does with imagine formats (.gif, .jpeg etc) and css.

Why does apache / mod-perl process the above file types as normal but
not .ra .ram etc?

What stage are they handled at? (my handler is called at the
PerlHeaderParserHandler stage and under debug I do not see calls for
imagines etc).

How can I make apache avoid calling my code when a .ra .ram .rpm .mp3
etc URI is requested?

I hope my question is clear???

httpd.conf:
<Location /*>
PerlOptions +GlobalRequest
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
PerlHeaderParserHandler +Dispatcher
</Location>

Any help (direction to documentation) would be greatly appricated.
Happy Holidays
