str_replace help

[bwhite]

I have remade my company webpage using very little php mostly because I don't know it however the last web designer seemed to love it and now all the links that are out in the big www start with "?p=" and I can't do a 301 redirect on those pages. how do I rewrite those links as they are coming in to change ?p=page to page/php so I can properly redirect them in my htaccess file.

 

Redirect 301 /?p=oldpage http://www.mypage.com/newpage.php/ won't redirect

Redirect 301 /oldpage.php http://www.mypage.com/newpage.php/ will redirect

 

 

I found this in his index.php file and I think thats what he used to change the .php to ?p=

 

$page = (isset($_GET['p']) ? $_GET['p'] : $homePage);
$page = basename($page);
$page = str_replace(".php","",$page);

if(!file_exists($page . '.php')){
 $page = $errorPage;

Yes - that section is what you think it is.  So - if you have used "some" php, why not continue to use this part as well?  His use of "?p=xxx" is not just the use of PHP, it is a standard url with a GET parm.

 

Or are you looking for some php code to resolve the existing urls?

 

Or are you done with this problem?
