[SOLVED] Need help with mod rewrite


rondog

Recommended Posts

In an effort to make a site I am working on more search engine friendly I need to manipulate the URLs a bit. Say I have a link that looks like this:

http://mysite.com/?page=optimization

 

I would like to use mod rewrite to make it something like this: http://mysite.com/solutions/optimization

 

How would I write that? I've googled but regular expression is beyond me at this point. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Mod rewrite has nothing to do with HTML content or PHP pages.

 

It simply internally (or sometimes externally) 'translates' the incoming URI to the correct thing for Apache to do.

 

 

 

Simple answer: You have to change links your self, or just do it with a script.

I am trying to get this to work yet again and am having problems

 

I have a link like this:

http://mysite.com/?page=news&id=25

 

I want it displayed as

 

http://mysite.com/news/25

 

My .htaccess file contains this. I cant get it working :(

LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
AddModule mod_rewrite.c

Options +FollowSymLinks
Options +Indexes
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^news/([0-9]+)$ ?page=news&id=$1

ok I managed to get it working..for some reason my styles are not loading correctly however.

 

Visit http://ostari.com, on the left click one of the news links that say "See More"

 

Notice all my styles go away..what do I need to do to ensure this doesnt happen?

 

here is my .htaccess file as of now:

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^news/([0-9]+)$ ?page=news&id=$1

 

Firebug is telling me my css file cant be found and its looking in /news/inc/css/main.css

 

when really it is just /inc/css/main.css

 

Is their a RewriteRule I can do for that?

if I do this:

RewriteRule /inc/css/main.css http://ostari.com/inc/css/main.css

 

it kinda works..ehh there has to be a better way..

 

I also tried:

RewriteRule /inc/css/main.css ../inc/css/main.css

 

which gave me a 404 not found and then tried:

RewriteRule /inc/css/main.css ^../inc/css/main.css

 

which gave me a 500 internal server error.
