How to remove “index.php” in codeigniter's path

Question

How do I remove the \"index.php\" sticking out in every path in codeigniter somewhere in the center? I want clean non index.php-fied URLs?

Answer 1

I have tried many solutions but the one i came up with is this:

DirectoryIndex index.php
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|(.*)\.swf|forums|images|css|downloads|jquery|js|robots  \.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.php?$1 [L,QSA]

This iwill remove the index.php from the url as required.
