Easy, you just need to configure Static::Simple to allow .html to be served. Then Static::Simple can handle the files outside /static, and leave /static to mod_perl with SetHandler None Static::Simple will of course still happily serve /static under dev-server, it just won't see the requests on apache. Yeah, I don't get that. -- Lars Balker Rasmussen Consult::Perl -- Lars Balker Rasmussen
