Recommended Sticky Post

When I was dealing with trailing slashes and mod_rewrite I spent hours trying to find a simple solution that would force a trailing slash onto the end of a URL that ends with a directory name.  No matter where I looked I could only find people who were having the same problem with no answer.  Therefore, I would like to recommend that this solution be made Sticky on this forum.

 

To force a trailing slash to the end of a URL  simply add this RewriteRule:

RewriteRule ^directory$ directory/ [R]

 

The R flag stands for Force Redirect which will always guarantee you a trailing slash. Without the trailing slash your relative links are screwed.

 

Hope this helps some folks.
