so after posting this thread ( CGI::Application, inheritance trees, and 'the right way' ) i decided it was time to dig into CGI::Application::Dispatch, and it seems to be a great thing. most things "just work" ... as long as i've tacked on the module information in the path for GET/POST requests.

but now i'm stuck on *one* last thing. setting a "default" dispatch.

this works for a non-logged-in user:  /cgi-bin/myapp.cgi/SiteManager to take them to the login page.

I'd like to get that work work w/out the module name tacked onto the end ... if that's going to be possible. the perldoc for CGI::Application::Dispatch is a little sparse, and i understand that it's alpha SW ...

anyone tried to do this and been successful?
