Location: Netherlands                Hi all,

As a JavaScript developer (web developer) i can't understand why we need:
"appname.cgi/special/" instead of any like "appname.cgi/[any]" for the 
App.HandleSpecialURL event.

Let's say for example you where to create an API...
you will need to send your user's this link 
"http://example.com/appname.cgi/special/"; don't you
find that a bit too much length? And how would you like your API users to tell 
that they need to have "/special/" 
in the url. They won't understand and it doesn't look professional.

Last time we heard that "appname.cgi/framework/" was used by the framework 
itself, but there are
like a billion-billion-billion (etc etc) possibilities other than "/framework/" 
so why must this be limited to
"/special/"+"any/path/here" ?

My idea to the RS framework will be:
- The RS framework (app) first checks that the user does not directly call's 
the "/framework/" path if it does ask for it directly, then RS should show a 
404 (with out the commercial last line "Powered by: Real Studio Integrated Web 
Server 1.0") 
- If it's not there then you have a shorter (api) URL and it looks more 
professional. 

The proposal, is just for information to you. A feedback report will be made, 
if there is not 1 already.
Still i want to know how you as an RS Web Edition user thinks about the current 
situation.

Many thanks in advance,
SWORT

point by point of what you said.

This should be fixed.
