Look at the way lookup is implemented in the editor resource: in fact it "gobble" all reminaing components of the path (ie "foo/bar") and does a lookup (starting from the root of the server) on them.

I had taken for granted that looking at 'get' methods > in the resources would solve all of my problems, but maybe not? lookup is called when the main (http::lookup0 is triggered. Again I am not sure I understand the question. A new property has been added to Jigsaw: w3c.jigsaw.edit.root Which gives the name of the resource (in the root resource store) from which edit lookup should start. This is to solve the following problem: if you use the MirrorDirectory resource, you can't gain access to the editor (which is probably not part of the target site). That edit property allows you to circumvent that problem... [Again, I am probably out of the subject...] Anselm.
