clean-urls

I'm working on clean Url's for my website and I noticed that what you find on the internet is pretty much about rewriting your clean urls to the url that your server can work with. So something like this: www.domain.com/profile/username --> www.domain.com/profile.php?u=username RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^profile/(.*)$ /profile.php?u=$1 [L] So now with this I should link within my website to the cleanurl's. But intuitively it feels more solid/better to link to the 'dirty' url. So in that case you should use rewriterules for the above AND a redirect rule to rederict the 'dirty url' to the

I want to make all my URLs uniformly clean. Which means all my URLs have no extensions, nor trailing slash, and if a person does enter in a .php or trailing slash, it would simply redirect the person to the clean URL. Example: example.com/blog/file.php and example.com/blog/file/ would both redirect to example.com/blog/file ryanve In .htaccess try this: RewriteEngine on #unless directory, remove trailing slash RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ /$1 [R=301,L] #resolve .php file for extensionless php urls RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\

I'm trying to redirect the links on my domain. What I'm trying to achieve is: When the user clicks on a link to mydomain.com/index.php?dir=myfolder I want him to be redirected to exactly this URL but the browser bar is supposed to show this URL: mydomain.com/myfolder Since I don't have access to how the links are established (it's a php-site) I am trying to do this with just the .htaccess-file. This is what I have: RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} subdomain.mydomain.com RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)/style.css [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)/script.js [OR]

I use these lines of code to remove all punctuation marks, symbols, etc as you can see them in the array, $pattern_page = array("+",",",".","-","'","\"","&","!","?",":",";","#","~","=","/","$","£","^","(",")","_","<",">"); $pg_url = str_replace($pattern_page, ' ', strtolower($pg_url)); but I want to make it simpler as it looks silly to list all the stuff I want to remove in the array as there might be some other special characters I want to remove. I thought of using the regular expression below, $pg_url = preg_replace("/\W+/", " ", $pg_url); but it doesn't remove under-score - _ What is the

Instead of Users.action?login=foo I want to have /users/foo/ In spring mvc they have "URI templates" for it, but they are only annotation-based. Is it possible to do such url-s in Struts with xml from-the-box? The only one thing I found was external tool: http://www.progbear.com/voice/2010/struts-2-create-friendly-url-with-urlrewritefilter wildcards in struts do not work with "/" and cannot pass parameters to action. Sure I can get this info from request but I believe Struts should support it. Steven Benitez Yes, you can do this out-of-the-box with Struts2. Check out the
