Catching the url path following a python cgi script?

It's better if I do an example to explain my question:

Filename of cgi script: 'awesome'
URL: http://omgpython.com/awesome
'awesome' script runs normally.

I append a 'fake' path: '/omg/so/fake'
URL: http://omgpython.com/awesome/omg/so/fake'

'awesome' script runs normally without any errors, but is it possible to catch the 'fake' path within 'awesome'?

I'm trying to clean the URL by not using URL params.

You want os.environ['PATH_INFO']. In the second example it will contain "/omg/so/fake".
