PHP List,
This problem is a little hard to describe. Please forgive me in
advance if it's not clear.
I have set up my .htaccess file to work with my PHP script to
create "friendly URLs".
[snip]
I thought it had something to do with setting headers. I want
everything to operate through the index.php file in my root
directory, so I thought I could do that by putting this at the top
of the index.php page:
header("Location: /");
Or:
header("/local/server/www/directory/");
Bottom line is, how do I ensure that all links and user requests
through the URL end up going to the index.php in my web site's root
directory?
If you want all requests to go through index.php, then the .htaccess
file would be something like:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^whatever/.*$ - [L]
RewriteRule !\.(gif|jpg|png|css|pdf)$ /server_path/index.php
The second line exempts the directory "whatever" and the third line
starts by exempting direct requests for files ending with "gif",
"jpg", etc.
Then, index.php would examine $_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"] to map the
"friendly" URL to content by including files or redirecting with
header().
Is that what you mean?
