Help needed in URL Rewriting Issue

[deepakonwww]

Hello PHP Friends,

 

I need your help in a very crucial Issue.

 

Basically I am developing my site in PHP.

 

I want to use URL Rewriting in my site using mod_rewrite.

 

I want my URL in this way

 

http://www.mysite.com/development/php/basic/

 

this url should load the basic.php page from the php directory.

 

here the important point is if user write something like

http://www.mysite.com/development/php/basic

 

the slash ("/") should be added automatically to the URL.

 

and if user writes http://www.mysite.com/development/php

 

then a slash should be added to the URL and it will load the default.php page from that directory.

here you can assume that every directory contains the default page.

 

and if user writes http://www.mysite.com/my

 

then it should add the slash to the URL like this http://www.mysite.com/my/ and load the my.php page.

 

Hope I have made myself clear.

 

Please guide me in this regards.

 

Thanks in Advance....

Try to use optional, replace / with /? in your rewrite rule.

Hi,

 

First of all thanks for your reply..

But I am totally new to the URL Rewriting.

 

So what I need is a Rewriting Rule.

 

Please help

Oh I thought you had already got it working.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^development/([a-z)]/?([a-z])?/?$ /$1/$2.php
RewriteRule ^([a-z])/?$ $1.php

 

Not sure if it works, but you will need to do your part on PHP regarding the default.php
