Similar to you, and wanting to use pretty URLs I built =something similar, but did it a different way.

_All_ =page requests are caught by a url-rewrite rule and get sent to =dispatch.tpl

Dispatch.tpl has hundreds of rules =that decide what page to show, and uses includes to do =it. 

(this keeps everything in-house to webdna =so i don=E2=80=99t have to go mucking about in webdna here, and apache =there, and linux somewhere else, and etc=E2=80=A6) 

Three special =circumstances came up that needed special code to send out proper HTTP =status codes:

<!=E2=80=94 for page URLS that have permanently moved =(webdna sends out a 302 temporarily moved code on a redirect) ==E2=80=94>

[function =name=3D301public]

[text]eol=3D[unurl]%0D%0A[/unurl][/text]

[returnraw]HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently[eol]Location: http://www.example.com[link][eol][eol][/returnraw]

[/function]

<!=E2=80=94 I send this to non google/bing/yahoo bots and =other attempting to crawl/copy the entire site=E2=80=94>

[function name=3D404hard]

[text]eol=3D[unurl]%0D%0A[/unurl][/text]

[returnraw]HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found[eol]Status: 404 Not =Found[eol]Content-type: =text/html[eol][eol]<html>[eol]<body>[eol]<h1>404 Not =Found</h1>[eol]The page that you have requested ([thisurl]) could =not be found.[eol]</body>[eol]</html>[/returnraw]

[/function]

<!=E2=80=94 and finally a pretty 404 page for humans ==E2=80=94>

[function name=3D404soft]

[text]eol=3D[unurl]%0D%0A[/unurl][/text]

[returnraw]HTTP/1.0 404 Not Found[eol]Status: 404 Not =Found[eol]Content-type: text/html[eol][eol][include =file=3D/404pretty.tpl][/returnraw]

[/function]
