Justin et al,

That is promising, but I can't alter any of the request parameters before the 
filter has a chance to record them. 

I haven't tried this solution yet, but I believe URL rewriting will change the 
request params to reflect the new target. This could work if my filter was run 
before the URL rewriting, but I am using an output filter (e.g. 
PerlOutputFilterHandler). I might be able to split my handler into input and 
output handlers, but that approach will likely have consequences of it's own.

Any other thoughts?

Thanks for your time,
Erik

Unless I'm misunderstanding the task, a simple RewriteRule will 
accomplish this.

RewriteRule .* /cgi-bin/helloworld.cgi [L]
