1.2 Flexibility
</H1>

<P>
Apache processes requests in phases (e.g. read the request, parse
  headers, check access, etc.). These phases can be implemented by
  functions called handlers. Traditionally, handlers are written in C
  and compiled into Apache modules. Mod_python provides a way to
  extend Apache functionality by writing Apache handlers in
  Python. For a detailed description of the Apache request processing
  process, see the <em class="citetitle"><a
 href="http://dev.apache.org/API.html"
 title="Apache
  API Notes"
 >Apache
  API Notes</a></em>, as well as the
  <em class="citetitle"><a
 href="http://www.modpython.org/python10/"
 title="Mod_python -
  Integrating Python with Apache"
 >Mod_python -
  Integrating Python with Apache</a></em> paper.

<P>
To ease migration from CGI, a standard mod_python handler is
  provided that simulates the CGI environment allowing a user to run
  legacy scripts under mod_python with no changes to the code (in most
  cases).
