Help with 404 rewrite rule please.

 Hello
 I am trying to work out how to do a rewrite test so
that I can send a different error response based on
the file extension requested. 

 If the file requested was a .jpg, and it is not
found, send a jpg "not found" file.
 If the file requested was a .html, and it was not
found, send an html/text based 404 response.
 Etc..

 In apache I could use -f as a test for the existence
of a file, to fail and go to an alternate resonse.
However I an uncertain how to create such a rule with
light httpd.

 Would rewrite even be able to catch it before the
built in 404 error system?

 Any assistance greatly apprecciated!

  Thanks

  Nicole
