extensions is <em>normally</em> irrelevant. For example, if the
file <code>welcome.html.fr</code> maps onto content type

- information. The only exception to this is if an extension is
- given which Apache does not know how to handle. In this case it
- will "forget" about any information it obtained from extensions
- to the left of the unknown extension. So, for example, if the
- extensions fr and html are mapped to the appropriate language
- and type but extension xxx is not assigned to anything, then
- the file <code>welcome.fr.xxx.html</code> will be associated

type of meta-information, then the one to the right will be

- <code>welcome.gif.html</code> will be associated with the
