Location problems

[Igor Clark]

Hi Igor,

Everything that doesn't exist as a file gets routed to either / 
frontend.php, or /admin.php if the URI starts with /admin. If so, it's  
IP-restricted in this case, basic_auth protected in other cases.

So we want to be able to do:

/	->	/frontend.php	-> fastcgi

/speakers/show/all	-> /frontend.php?control_path=/speakers/show/all	->	 
fastcgi

/admin	->	/admin.php	->	fastcgi, protected

/admin/speakers/edit/32		/admin.php?control_path=/admin/speakers/edit/ 
32	->	fastcgi, protected

I'm just wondering whether our approach of "rewrite first, then deal  
with locations" is just wrong, maybe we should deal with locations  
first and then rewrite if necessary.

Thanks for your help,
Igor
