Hello,
I have a mod_perl program that is written to handle URL's that
name either a directory or *.html type files. All other types
I want Apache to just do its regular thing (e.g., serve image
type files, or .doc, .pdf, .js, .css, etc.)
What's a good way to configure that? So for an entire website 
directory, and all its substructure, my perl handler gets only 
directories
or  *.html files, and apache handles everything else without
involing my perl handler.

Thanks for any help or ideas. 
Hi Joe,

I used .cgim extension for this to reflect mod_perl

I don't have access to an example from a more recent server but this is 
how I made .cgim's under one site work.  It might help you.

<Directory /htdocs/example.org/html/>
  <Files ~ "\.cgim$">
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler Apache::PerlRun
    #PerlHandler Apache::Registry
    Options +ExecCGI
    PerlSendHeader On
    PerlInitHandler Apache::StatINC
    PerlSetVar StatINC_Debug 1
  </Files>
</Directory>

regards,
