Path after a .php extension

Recommended Posts

Hey guys! I just joined this forum today, and I'm wondering about something...

 

I see a lot of sites, and in the code of the site, style sheets and javascript includes are references in a manner similar to this...

 

"href='http://www.somesite.com/css/css.php/someDirectory/style.css'"

 

How is this done? The path following the "css.php" is what confuses me.  Thanks for any information you have!

In general you can have a dot in a directory name so at face value that css.php is just a regular folder name.  But more than likely that link is being rewritten to with mod_rewrite to point to css.php and pass someDirectory and style.css as params, something like ../css.php?dir=someDirectory&file=style.css and is done for SEO/search bot/content optimization purposes.
