RE: [users@httpd] Need a mod-rewrite rule for a website's home page

[David Blomstrom <david_blomstrom@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just found a pretty effective fix. I added slashes after each entry in my "exceptions" switch:

[PHP]
 switch ( $MyName )
 {
 case 'About/':
 case 'People/':
 case 'Reference/':
 echo 'It works!';
 break;
 default:
include ($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/404.php");
 break;
 }
[/PHP]

Now, if I type mysite/About/ into my browser, it works as it's supposed to. If I type mysite/About (no ending slash), it still displays properly, though the URL nevertheless defaults to http://gw/About/?home=About

So I guess that fixes it, though I'd still appreciate any cosmetic fixes that might nix those sloppy default URL's. :)
