Use of AddHandler

[Dwayne Miller <dm...@espgroup.net>]

I'm confused on how to use the AddHandler directive.

I've written a module, loaded it, and it seems to get called for every 
page requested.  Do I need to determine if the page is something I want 
to handle or pass on?  I thought the AddHandler directive is used to 
tell apache which file types I would like to see.  If so, how do I 
register my module with the appropriate type used in AddHandler directive?

TIA
Dwayne

For now you must look at r->handler to see if you just decline to
handle the request immediately.  Look at status_handler() in
mod_status.c.
