Re: mod_rewrite & WO

As I said, it seems like rewriting a WO URL only works, when 
mod_WebObjects is loaded before mod_rewrite. This somehow makes sense 
because one could argue that if mod_rewrite handles the URL before it 
knows anything about WO, it could not pass it on to WO....

BUT why does the same thing work with mod_weblogic?

Is this an other bug in mod_WebObjects? It it fixed in the WONDER 
adaptor? Any other work arrounds?

Thanks!
