problem with a module at root

[Etienne Pelaprat]

Hi all,

I'm having this problem when I run a perl module at the root of my web 
site.  This is the snippet from httpd.conf:

        <Location />
                SetHandler      perl-script
                PerlHandler     Apache::BOSCIndex
        </Location>

Now, when I have a form on my web site that posts to, let's say, here:

http://my.web.site/cgi-bin/contact/contact.pl

the site does not execute, instead it just shows me the script's source 
code.  However, when I disable the code from httpd.conf that links root 
to the module, the above script executes great from the form on the 
web.  Here is the module that links to the root of my web site:

-----------------------
package Apache::BOSCIndex;

# use
use strict;
use Audrey;
use Audrey::Display;
use Audrey::News;
use CGI qw(:standard);
use Apache::Constants qw(OK DECLINED);

my $q = CGI->new;
my $Audrey = Audrey->new;
my $Display = Audrey::Display->new;
my $News = Audrey::News->new;

sub handler {
        my $r = shift;

        # PerlTransHandler
        return DECLINED unless $r->uri eq "/";
        $r->handler( "perl-script" );
        $r->push_handlers( PerlHandler => sub {
                my $user_id = $Audrey->get_user_id( $r );
                $Display->update_stats( $user_id, "Front_Page" );

                # print the header
                $r->content_type('text/html');
                $r->send_http_header;

                # load the profile
                $Display->load_user( $user_id );

                # now print the html
                $Display->pre_main( $r, $user_id, "BeOSCentral - always" );
                $News->print_news_items( $r );
                $Display->post_main( $r, $user_id );
        });

        return OK;
}

# return true
1;
-----------------------

You'll notice that I use a PerlTransHandler, this is because without it 
I have some <img> tag like this:

<img src="/images/icons/image.gif">

then it would not display the image (it was trying to execute the 
module.  That's why the PerlTransHandler is there.  But now I have a 
problem executing scripts that are linked to the root of the site, for 
example:

<form action='/cgi-bin/contact/contact.pl' method=post>

And I have no idea why.  Any help would be appreciated, thanks in 
advance.

Regards,

Etienne
