Thanks for the quick reply Pete I think there is a kind of misunderstanding here...i'm sorry about that I'm not so sure my English help here, but clearly i want SEO friendly urls... that means i want to hide query-strings and the php file extension.. so that means to hide "http://localhost/new/html/crete-highlights?heraklion&city_guide" and instead of this i want this: "http://localhost/new/html/crete-highlights/heraklion/city_guide It's blame that the website is running locally, on my computer's web server and you can't see this in action.. I can't understand what is all about the "document root".. Is that true .htaccess file can be placed anywhere i want to?

Yes i want to rewrite highlights.php?heraklion&city-guide to crete-highlights/heraklion/city-guide. The .htaccess is in the folder called "html". That's the website's root folder Please keep in mind all the other rules are functioning. URL structure: http://localhost/new/html/highlights.php http://localhost/new/html/highlights/heraklion.php http://localhost/new/html/highlights/heraklion/city_guide.php This is the file structure: htdocs\new\html\highlights.php htdocs\new\html\highlights\heraklion.php htdocs\new\html\highlights\heraklion\city_guide.php also i call the files like this way: heraklion.php is included in highlights.php city_guide.php is included in heraklion.php The full URL is: http://localhost/new/html/crete-highlights?heraklion&city_guide Thanks again!

It doesn't work... the rules are valid apart from that one The page without mod_rewrite is actually(and it works): http://localhost/new/html/highlights.php?heraklion&city-guide The path of the city_guide.php file in the server in that way: htdocs\new\html\highlights\heraklion\city_guide.php Please notice: -"city_guide.php" is in "heraklion" directory. -"city_guide.php" is included in "heraklion.php". -"heraklion.php" is in "highlights" directory. -"heraklion.php" is included in highlights.php -"highlights.php" is in "html" directory. I'm feeling completely stuck here I would appreciate any help!

Hello! I'm using .htaccess for rewrite rules, everything works fine, i want to add a new rule but it seems impossible to make it work... this is the original link: highlights.php?heraklion&city_guide and this is the link after the desired rewriting rule: crete-highlights/heraklion/city-guide I think it must be something with the "&" character....but i can't figure out... I'm completelly stuck on this... Thanks for any help This is my existing .htaccess file, the one i want to add the rule: Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine On #basic navigation RewriteRule ^excursions/?$ excursions.php [NC,L] RewriteRule ^crete-recommended-hotels/?$ hotels.php [NC,L] RewriteRule ^contact/?$ contact.php [NC,L] RewriteRule ^tour-reservation/?$ tour_reservation.php [NC,L] RewriteRule ^crete-highlights/?$ highlights.php [NC,L] RewriteRule ^crete-recommended-hotels/([analipsi]+)/?$ hotels.php?analipsi#hotels=$1 RewriteRule ^crete-recommended-hotels/([heraklion]+)/?$ hotels.php?heraklion=$1 RewriteRule ^crete-recommended-hotels/([stalida]+)/?$ hotels.php?stalida=$1 RewriteRule ^crete-highlights/([heraklion]+)/?$ highlights.php?heraklion=$1 RewriteRule ^crete-highlights/([chania]+)/?$ highlights.php?chania=$1 RewriteRule ^crete-highlights/([rethymnon]+)/?$ highlights.php?rethymnon=$1 RewriteRule ^crete-highlights/([lasithi]+)/?$ highlights.php?lasithi=$1

There is one more issue for me to solve... Is it possible to include image resizing functionality within? Should i use the $file_name = trim($_FILES['file']['name']);// original name of file , or the actual image file name ($imfile? I've searched through many resources including this one: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,294431.0.html but i didn't make it through.... Also as i see in php manual would anyone suggest to use the "Imagick::resizeImage " function? (notice that my host supports ImageMagick) Any idea anyone please!?

Thank you Richard!! You solution is perfect!!

Thanks for you suggestion Jax2! It may be useful indeed! Also I think my current script has a lot of error reporting functionality so i can't stop thinking the way to solve this problem in my current script..... ( How can we assign the filename ( $_FILES["file"]["name"] ) into something else - suitable for inserting to database?

Hello everybody! I'm a newbie with PHP and i'm trying to build my first application. It's a multipart data form, with image upload functionality. <form method="post" action="process.php" enctype="multipart/form-data"> <label>Bus Name: </label> <input name="busname" id="name" type="text" maxlength="100" /> <br /> <label>Bus Description: </label> <textarea name="description" id="description" cols="45" rows="5"></textarea> <br /> <label>select an image:</label> <input type="file" id="file" name="file" /> <input type="submit" id="add" value="add" /> </form> The data is submitted to "process.php" file: include 'config.php'; /* File Upload */ if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg") || ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")) && ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 200000)) { if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0) { echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br />"; } else { if (file_exists("../upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"])) { echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . " - file already exists. "; echo "please go back and select another image file." ; exit; } else { move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], "../upload/" . $_FILES["file"]["name"]); echo "image saved successfully</br>"; echo $_FILES["file"]["name"] . '</br>'; } } } else { echo "Invalid file. Please go back and choose a valid image file!"; exit; } /* post variables */ if(isset($_POST['add'])) { $username = $_POST['name']; $password = $_POST['description']; } /* insert name and description */ $sql="INSERT INTO bus (name, description) VALUES ('$_POST[busname]','$_POST[description]')"; if (!mysql_query($sql)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "1 record added"; As you can see the values of "name" and "description", will be inserted to the database. Also i want to get the image filename of the uploaded file into database. I'm gonna use it at a later time to link the uploaded image.. I'm trying to print the "$_FILES["file"]["name"]" but i'm completely stuck.. Is there any way to do this?? Thanks in advance!

hello I had installed the latest version of HCL, i have create the operators, departaments and assigned them. I have put the code in visitor page, and make a test. I asked someone to request help via chat from visitor page, and me i was waiting on admin panel with live help window opened. I have seen him, he ask for a chat request, i have accepted but in my help window is no chat field. Only a info visitor field above it is writing: "chatting". [img src=\"http://www.greek-auctions.gr/hclbug.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"IPB Image\" /] I asked for support in the official support forums [a href=\"http://www.ubertec.co.uk/forums\" target=\"_blank\"]ubertec.co.uk[/a] and didn't helped.. This is not a javascript bug not either something with the "timer" settings in config file. Also i checked this in different versions of HCL and couple of browsers (mozilla suite, internet explorer, opera). regards
