[Zope] Difference between zope and apache

[Jan-Frode Myklebust]

Hi, 

I've just noticed an annoying difference in the handling of directories
in zope. If I create an directory /myDirectory, put an index_html file
there, and a my.css file the index_html should use in the same directory
refering to it with <link rel=stylesheet type=text/css href="my.css"> in
the head of my document I get a structure that would work perfectly fine
in apache, but not in zope.

/myDirectory
/myDirectory/index_html
/myDirectory/my.css

Accessing http://example.com/myDirectory in zope would give me the
files http://example.com/myDirectory/index_html and
http://example.com/my.css

In apache the server would return a location header like:

	Location: http://example.com/myDirectory/

and then my browser would know it should ask for
http://example.com/myDirectory/my.css

Zope doesn't seem to set the location header, so asking for 

	http://example.com/myDirectory/
	http://example.com/myDirectory

returns different results if the index_html contains relative URLs 
below /myDirectory/.

Bug or feature?
