On further inspection it occured to me that this was probably
because I hadn't added a content-type for .pup :) Sorry
if you wasted time reading the first message, at least it's
in the archives for others with turned-off-brains in the future.
AddType text/html .epl
AddType text/html .p
To clarify, other pages send a header with Content Type
text/html; the .pup pages I'm describing are sent with
type text/plain.

Hi,
the problem I see from your source is the following code
[-
$req = shift;
Execute ("main/index.html");

This just inserts the content of main/index.html at the place you call
Execute. Execute will always only include the file you call. For the result
you want, you need a new http reque

Surely this would make sense for most applications and would make things a lot

your addtions makes sense to me. The only thing to worry about may be the
performance. I don't know how expensive your addtions are. I will take a

and your addtions will go to 1.3.1b1.
