Hi Cees,

Not for me unfortunately. I've got 'use Attribute::Handlers' in Apache 
startup.pl script, sub-classes and superclass, but still no joy. I 
either get the 'no such run mode' error, or a dump_html output. I 
haven't worked out what triggers which of the 2 responses yet (possibly 
whether it's 'root' or 'branch' request (eg /foo or /foo/bar), but in 
any case it just doesn't work. It's RunmodeDeclare for me from now on. 
Thanks anyway.
