I have thought about using WordPress – or maybe just copy a few functions to a internal site – but before I'd use it I would like to know how it's working. I'm thinking that WP is a bunch of slamcode so I'm hoping some of you could help me on how it's built. How is the .htaccess and URL rewrite combined with index.php? - The .htaccess ...
How do I change the following client-side URL domain.com/profile/jung domain.com/jung (preferable) to a server-side URL of domain.com/profile.php?user_id=100 with the username in a php variable? I know I need to edit my htaccess file with a RewriteCond and RewriteRule but it's still not clear to me... How does Twitter manage thei...
I am using the Kohana framework (but I think it's irrelevant for this question) and pages can be accessed like so http://www.example.com/articles/ http://www.example.com/index.php/articles/ Now, as a rule of thumb, I generally try and tweak my .htaccess to only allow one way in for a page, and silently redirect other common ways. Ess...
I am using these rules and conditions in .htaccess to turn these http://www.example.com/index.php/about/history http://www.example.com/about/history/index.php into http://www.example.com/about/history .htaccess # ensure there is no /index.php in the address bar RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,9}\ /.*index\.php\ HTTP/ R...

I need to implement a custom handler for MVC that gives me the first look at URLs requests to determine if it should rewrite the urls before submitting the URL to the routing engine. Any pattern is a candidate for the redirect, so I need to intercept the URL request before the standard MVC routing engine takes a look at it. After looki...
when we add a param to the URL $redirectURL = $printPageURL . "?mode=1"; it works if $printPageURL is "http://www.somesite.com/print.php", but if $printPageURL is changed in the global file to "http://www.somesite.com/print.php?newUser=1", then the URL becomes badly formed. If the project has 300 files and there are 30 files that appe...

Hi to all, I'm aware of all the canonical ways of getting clean URLs (www.mysite.com/getarticle?a=123 vs www.mysite.com/getarticle/123). Those solutions include mod_rewrite, force_type and various configurations of apache, mostly. Since I don't have access to such config on my shared hosting, is there any solution / hack to work around...
Hey there, this is a newbie Zend question. Under a site location: “mydomain.org/subA/subB”, if we go to this location without logging in (or having a session), it i) redirects to a login page. Otherwise, it ii) redirects to a race registration form. Now, I’d thought that Apache rewrite rules did that, but there’s not config that indicate...
Hey everyone, Im developing a new site, and I'd like to store my rewrite rules in a database, instead of right in the .htaccess files. I have another site that uses Opensef (http://sourceforge.net/projects/opensef/) with a Joomla! installation that is doing this, but im not even 100% how it works underneath the hood. How can I store t...
I was wondering is there any difference in terms of performance between the two approaches? Any good articles on this? ...
Hi I am using a .htccess file in order to rewrite my URLs. I am using the following rules in my .htaccess files Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^product/([0-9]+)/([A-Za-z0-9+]+)$ /product.php?productid=$1&prodname=$2 The rewrite worked fine.

I'm doing a quick sandbox test with some Rewritten URLs (example taken from Scott Guthrie's blog) and Forms Authentication / Authorization. I've a very simple setup. ~/View/(\d{1,6}) => ~/Public/View.aspx?ContentID=$1 AND ~/Buy/(\d{1,6}) => ~/Private/Purchase.aspx?ContentID=$1 I've confirmed the URL Rewriting...
Hey folks, I am trying to get URL rewriting to work on my website. Here is the contents of my .htaccess: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^blog/?$ index.php?page=blog [L] RewriteRule ^about/?$ index.php?page=about [L] RewriteRule ^portfolio/?$ index.php?page=portfolio [L] #RewriteRule ^.*$ index.php?page=blog [L] Now the 3 uncommented re...
I'm trying to set up page anchors on a website that uses mod_rewrite (Apache2 running on Ubuntu Server 9.04). My htaccess file looks like this: RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^information.php/([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ information.php?display=$1 [NC,NE] If I was using regular URL's the query would look something like this: http://mydomain/info...
I'm trying to create something similar to the diggbar : http://digg.com/http://cnn.com I'm using Visual Studio 2010 and Asp Development server. However, I can't get the ASP dev server to handle the request because it contains "http:" in the path. I've tried to create an HTTPModule to rewrite the URL in the BeginRequest , but the eve...
I am a newbie to mod_rewrite and I was wondering if there is any way you could make on rewrite script that handles and number of variables you throw at it. Example: www.krisnicolaou.com/index.php?id=5&sort=asc&limit=25¶m=first_name to www.krisnicolaou.com/5/asc/25/first_name ...but, you can also pass these variables in on another ...
When it comes to URL Rewriting there are some alternatives these days like the IIS7 module or Urlrewriter.NET. However, as far as I can see those two are based on wildcards which I sadly cannot use. My problem is that the data I'm working with have no real structure. A made up example: Something.aspx?page=4 might be /Weapons/Flails/ So...
I am trying to redirect a user when they entire a URL in this format: http://example.com/http://example2.com/ To the following: http://example.com/?m=example2.com#http%3A%2F%2Fwww.example2.com%2F I want to strip out the host of example2 and make it a query-string, then URL encode the full URL of example2 and put it as the anchor. ...
