6.1.1 Introduction
</H2>

<P>
To use the handler, you need the following lines in your configuration
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
  &lt;Directory /some/path&gt;
    SetHandler mod_python 
    PythonHandler mod_python.publisher
    &lt;/Directory&gt;
</pre></div>

<P>
This handler allows access to functions and variables within a module
via URL's. For example, if you have the following module, called 
<span class="file">hello.py</span>:

<P>
<div class="verbatim"><pre>
  """ Publisher example """

  def say(req, what="NOTHING"):
  return "I am saying %s" % what
</pre></div>

<P>
A URL <code>http://www.mysite.com/hello.py/say</code> would return 
"<tt class="samp">I am saying NOTHING</tt>". A URL 
<code>http://www.mysite.com/hello.py/say?what=hello</code> would
return "<tt class="samp">I am saying hello</tt>".

<P>
