Regarding .htaccess

So I am creating a website that the individual would like to have his website as /shop/123 instead of shop.php?id=123. I have been using .htaccess and it's working to show it that but it's blocking my other scripts from working

RewriteRule ^items/p/([0-9]+)/?$ /items.php?page=$1

It is blocking this from being used 

<input type="text" class="search" id="inputSearch" />
<div id="divResult">
</div>

It's blocking my javascript from running and its this 

$(function(){
$(".search").keyup(function() 
{ 
var inputSearch = $(this).val();
var dataString = 'searchword='+ inputSearch;
if(inputSearch!='')
{
      $.ajax({
      type: "POST",
      url: "search.php",
      data: dataString,
      cache: false,
      success: function(html)
      {
      $("#divResult").html(html).show();
      }
      });
}return false;    
});

jQuery("#divResult").live("click",function(e){ 
      var $clicked = $(e.target);
      var $name = $clicked.find('.name').html();
      var decoded = $("<div/>").html($name).text();
      $('#inputSearch').val(decoded);
});
jQuery(document).live("click", function(e) { 
      var $clicked = $(e.target);
      if (! $clicked.hasClass("search")){
      jQuery("#divResult").fadeOut(); 
      }
});
$('#inputSearch').click(function(){
      jQuery("#divResult").fadeIn();
});
});

Can anyone help me with this?

As you can tell,

 

RewriteRule ^items/p/([0-9]+)/?$ /items.php?page=$1
has absolutely nothing in common with

url: "search.php",
So what do you mean by it's "blocking" scripts? Are you getting 404s? Or what? What else have you changed in the .htaccess recently?

So while your on items/ the search box works but when you use the items/buy... it does not work

  • Solution

To make it short: Virtual paths like /items/p/ and relative physical paths like search.php don't go well together. The browser will end up trying to access nonsense URLs like /items/p/search.php, because it assumes it's actually within the directory /items/p/.

 

Use absolute paths instead. For example, if your PHP script is directly below the document root, that's

/search.php

In the long run, you should also consider switching to virtual (“pretty”) URLs altogether. Then you can completely decouple the physical script paths from the URLs.
