Suggestions for static-path structures and have I done something evil

mtos42rc2 LAMP fresh db with restore from 3.34 mysqldump

I'm experimenting with directory structures and have come up with the following:

File path structure:

/www/one/mtcgi/ /www/one/mtstatic/ /www/one/mt_pages/

http://one.mtengine.com/ ==> /www/one/mtpages/ http://cog1.mtengine.com/ ==> /www/one/mtcgi/ http://cog1static.mtengine.com/ ==> /www/one/mt_static/

I thought this looked sound. None of the published URIs expose the filesystem and the path to web pages is completely isolated from the path to cgi scripts.

Question: could it be a problem for cgi and static to not share a same resolvable root? Could this mess up some interface javascript? Is there any assumption on the part of the dev team that the two directories share a same root?

Cheers:-)
