Jason thanks! your information about those 512 bytes is VERY useful
but just a lil' too late, i already came up with a solution using a
conditional URL rewrite rule in my apache, along with a "<Location>
ForceType .." which helps me invoke my php script, if anyone is
interested i can send out the details, it actually executes the
php script for every http request received by the apache server.
Rasmus, thanks for your efforts on PHP development, we ALL owe you
big time. I hope you succeed with that request_rec stuff soon,
i spent some 4 hours making possible that a script be invoked
for every http request... <duh> this has to be easier for next
PHP version!
Thanks to everyone who *at least* tried to help.
Enrique-
