POE::Component::Server::HTTP (PoCo::HTTPD) is a framework for building custom HTTP servers based on POE. It is loosely modeled on the ideas of apache and the mod_perl/Apache module.

It is built alot on work done by Gisle Aas on HTTP::* modules and the URI module which are subclassed.

PoCo::HTTPD lets you register different handler, stacked by directory that will be run during the cause of the request.
