XeScience Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 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!

.josh Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 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.
