Hi,

I have a module called Application that pretty much acts as a dispatcher 
and handles the root URI of my application.
The problem is the images that I would like to put under the same URI 
path, but can't do because I don't know how to return the request back 
to Apache from Application when the request is for an image.

In other words, I would like to have:

<Location />
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlResponseHandler MCAM::Application
</Location>

and the URI for images be /images/. When Application detects that the 
request is for anything under /images/, it returns the control to Apache 
to serve the image, otherwise it displatches the request to the right 
module.

Currently I have the following:

<Location /app>
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlResponseHandler MCAM::Application
</Location>

so that the requests for /images/ bypass the Application handler.

On a related note, is it worth using TemplateToolkit's PRE_DEFINE 
functionality to store an image path, then use it in all the templates 
for flexibility?

TIA for any input/insights.
