.htaccess question

[prakash]

Well, I am sorry if this is not the right place for .htaccess support.

 

Actually I want to know does .htaccess RewriteEngine works automatically when PHP is parsed by the webserver or not.

Suppose I have

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^index-([0-9]+).html index.php?page=$1

and a link in a php document like <a href="index.php?page=13">Test Link</a>

 

so my question is does the link will be parsed to <a href="index-13.html">Test Link</a> automatically when the above Rewrite Rule is defined. or do I have to manually change the link to fit with my Rewrite Rule.

You will have to manually change your links.

You could parse the page code before printing it, finding all dynamic links and using the php to rewrite them to the proper format, preg_replace would be a good function to look at for this.
