Regarding

AddHandler *does* process files with specially defined extensions. What it doesn't do is process URLs with special extensions that just happen to map to a file when processed thorugh some cgi script. Apache has no knowledge that the CGI script is going to map the URL back to a file.

In other words, if the file isn't in the webspace, AddHandler is not the way to deal with it.

Thanks.
