User friendly URLs - mod rewrite and php redirections

Question

So far I\'ve done this:

RewriteBase /
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule  ^(.*)$ index.php?load=$1 [QSA,L]         


        

Answer 1

A simple solution would be: EDIT HTACCESS

RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !/signup
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI}  !/signin
RewriteRule ^([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ index.php?load=gallery&username=$1&gallery=$2
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond  %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule  ^(.*)$ index.php?load=$1 [QSA,L]

Now that PHP part ( for index.php ):

$load = $_GET['load'];
switch ($load){
    default:
        include('home.php');
        exit();
    break;
    case 'dashboard':
        include('dashboard.php');
        exit();
    break;
    case 'about':
        include('about.php');
        exit();
    break;
    case 'gallery':
        $username = $_GET['username'];
        $gallery = $_GET['gallery'];

        //check for the username and gallery

        header("Location: your-gallery-location-goes-here");
    break;
}

Hopefully it's gonna help :)
