Are you really sure that your problem is with the LocationMatch directive? All your examples seem perfectly valid to me. I suspect that you are barking up the wrong tree here.

I can't seem to set regex correctly for the directive.

The syntax is:

<LocationMatch regex> ... </LocationMatch>

I've tried many of the following to no avail:

<LocationMatch "^/(admin-media|connect|css|downloads|images|images-web|js)/.+$">
<LocationMatch "^/(admin-media|connect|css|downloads|images|images-web|js)/.+">
<LocationMatch "/(admin-media|connect|css|downloads|images|images-web|js)/.+$">
<LocationMatch "/(admin-media|connect|css|downloads|images|images-web|js)/.">

Basically, I'm trying to override my default handler to None for addresses that match http://mysite/css/anything, but with no luck!

I could try setting up <Location "/admin">, and so forth, but that's just bloating

The syntax kRON is using works for me. And the docs are pretty clear on this.

your right, I was barking up the wrong tree! I hade two v-host entries that really look alike, I was editing the handler for one app and testing it out on a completely different one and it never worked!

mod_rewrite has nothing to do with <LocationMatch>
