Well, what is Apache supposed to do in this case? You have data arguments from the POST, but the URL is for a simple data file fetch. Ignore the arguments and just give you the data file? BTW using a CGI script on GET is one way to do dynamic data. But I can't think of any useful semantic for POST on something that is not a CGI script or other input data handler, so I agree that giving a diagnostic is reasonable in this case. -- Charles B (Ben) Cranston mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.wam.umd.edu/~zben ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
