That is what I was thinking Ben. Maybe it just ran the handlers in the order they were defined in older Apache, but newer Apache runs them based on right to left in the filename.

The other advantage of using htaccess to corner off a section is that it allows uploading html and php files, such as 'index.php', and they get served as pure text. For a generic upload manager, like what we have on SoCoder, this is handy.`
