Hi Robert, I've just hacked together a patch which gives a IgnoreUrl directive for the mod_webapp connector. It's pretty ugly as it operates at the virtual host level, especially since there's unimplemented slots for ignore urls at the application level in the mod_webapp code. However, if you wanted to tell mod_webapp to ignore certains patterns use this syntax within your virtual host directives. You can add as many as you want.
IgnoreUrl /images/* *.html I've just lost contact with my dev machine, so I can't test it properly so don't blame me if you get loads of seg faults. However, the little testing I did do looked encouraging. If you want a binary for a Linux machine let me know.
