<P>

The <SAMP>RemoveHandler</SAMP> directive removes any

handler associations for files with the given extensions.

This allows <CODE>.htaccess</CODE> files in subdirectories to undo

any associations inherited from parent directories or the server

config files.  An example of its use might be:

</P>

<DL>

 <DT><CODE>/foo/.htaccess:</CODE></DT>

 <DD><CODE>AddHandler server-parsed .html</CODE></DD>

 <DT><CODE>/foo/bar/.htaccess:</CODE></DT>

 <DD><CODE>RemoveHandler .html</CODE></DD>

</DL>

<P>

This has the effect of returning <SAMP>.html</SAMP> files in the

<SAMP>/foo/bar</SAMP> directory to being treated as normal

files, rather than as candidates for parsing (see the

<A HREF="mod_include.html"><SAMP>mod_include</SAMP></A> module).

</P>
