[users@httpd] Handling files without extensions

[Rob Saunders <ro...@saunders.yourideal.co.uk>]

Hi,

I'm having a problem trying to used cleaned URLs, i.e. no filename 
extensions.

My index[.html] file contains a <form action="do-something"> HTML entry
where "do-something" is a script containing HTML and Mason embedded perl.

My problem is that unless I add a ".html" extension, the file is not 
processed by Mason and is represented as type text/plain - the apache 
DefaultType, despite the DocumentRoot (and subdirectories) being handled 
by Mason.

Is there a way in which I can get these files, without a filename 
extension, to be "processed" appropriately?

Some files will be Mason (like those called from with a form action), 
others will be images, etc... but I would ideally like to use cleaned 
URLs. Do I need to use something like mime_magic, if so, how? Or, is 
there something simpler that I can use?

TIA

Rob
