Subject: why is my module being called for all pages?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

warning: newbie alert!

I've got a simple module as detailed below.  I based it off
of the example module, stripping it down to the smallest
example I could.

It seems to be working, but it is getting called on all
web pages.  Can someone loan me a clue as to:

1.  why it is being called on all pages, not just the
     one I've specified in <Location>?

2.  what do I need to do to fix it?

Many TIA!
Mark
