Hi, guys I have a small and delicate problem. This I think, involves using the rewriterule from apache server, but I don't know where to post it Here's my situation : Until recently, my client had his site on a stack server. In this way, all his pages where addressed by : http://www.sitename.com/sitename/page.php also, google and all other search engines indexed his pages regarding his old location now, the problem is that, he's moved from the last host, and now he have pages in the root folder, not on a stack, addressed by http://www.sitename.com/pagename.extension for the php pages, I made a redirect in a sitename folder, in order to get, by redirect, to the new location. Now, some new facts on revealed that google, which is his reference tool regarding web placing, google doesn't like long addresses and also doesn't like php parameters. So, here's my new job I have to find a way of transforming the requests ( http://www.sitename.com/sitename/page.extension?parameters ) into new web addresses ( http://www.sitename.com/parameter1/value/parameter2/value/phppagename.ht ml ) So, I have to modify .htaccess file, to use a RewirteRule And, here's the content of .htaccess file ErrorDocument 404 http://www.sitename.com/index.php RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule /sitename/([a-z0-9]+).htm$ /$1.php [R] ( these are for the 1st problem) Some people recommended using rewrite module, and alias, but I have no idea how this is done. When I use the code above the only think I see when I click on a search result link is : Forbidden You don't have permission to access.../sitename/.. Now I have to make the parameter modification. So if the user come to this address : http://www.sitename.com/zone/1/country/31/city/2/location.html in fact the server will access this page http://www.sitename.com/location.php?zone=1 <http://www.sitename.com/location.php?zone=1&country=31&city=2> &country=31&city=2 Do you have any idea how this is done ? Can you give me some link, or point me to some direction . Thank you -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
