I have a page which receives a parameter and uses it to load it's content.
Let's say the url is www.myweb.com/category.php?name=shampoo. What I want is the URL to display www.myweb.com/shampoo, and that when some user types www.myweb.com/shampoo it actually loads www.myweb.com/category.php?name=shampoo but the url keeps displaying www.myweb.com/shampoo.
Same thing with, per example, www.myweb.com/category.php?name=soap displays as www.myweb.com/soap
Is this posible with php? I have made some research but I has not been able to find anything. Thank you very much.

I am using Beautiful Soup and pyquery(on python) and pquery (on php) to scraping(parse and fetch my desire part of html of url), But I have one problem with them, the number of URLs I want to try to fetch them is too much and all of this methods first try to load all section of page the we can scrap it with desire selectors,I just need some part of that pages , as example only specified class but I must get all of the page, I cause more consumption on bandwidth.
I want to know is there any way ( my knowledge tells me there is not but I ask maybe someone has idea or trick about it) or tools that instead get all page only try to get specified part of it?
more deatils:
let suppose I want get my answer title in this page, the url is https://stackoverflow.com/posts/34892845
and I just want text of question-hyperlink. I want get the title without get the whole of the page data ( I don't want fetch the whole of the page because saving my bandwidth in bulk operation)
I am trying to use Ajax in a Project.
The Idea is when i click a Tab,
The Relevant Data should load according to that Tab.
But it also should append the Url on address bar of current form that i am in.
Let Suppose i clicked the ERP Tab, so then ERP Divs should load inside the page but also the relative url should also show
e-g
www.mydomain.com\erp
i know about .load function, but with it it dont update the url on address bar.
plus data will be coming from different files.
Also Left Side Menus will be coming from Database on Role Base.
i am using codeigniter in this project
i want to have Url functionality as it will be easy for user to access that page directly with the complete url plus it also gives bookmark advantage too..
Here is the screenshot for more convenience.
AFAIK you can't change the actual URL without a page reload.
You'll have to use 'jquery-address' library. Check out https://github.com/asual/jquery-address
I would do two different things here:
To change the URL dynamically without page load, use the new history.pushState() method. If you are supporting older browsers, history.js is essentially the same API that falls back to a hashtag method. Note that these URLs are not accessible from the outside. Thus:
When a user travels to one of those URLs, default the open tab to whichever one you are trying to. You will have to capture the intended route and work some javascript magic on it.
As some of you may know, Google is now crawling AJAX. The implementation is by far something elegant, but at least it still applies to Yahoo and Bing AFAIK.
Context: My site is driven by Wordpress & HTML5. An Custom Post Type has tree types of content, and the contents of these are driven by AJAX. The solution I came for not using hashbangs (#!) until fully understand how to implement them is rather "risqué". Every link as HREF linking to *site.com/article-one/?tab=first_tab*, that shows only the contents of the selected tab (<div>Content...</div>). Like this:
This First Tab
As you may note, data-tab is the value that JavaScript sends with AJAX Get, that gets the related content and renders inside a container. At the other side, the server gets the variable and does a <?php get_template_part('tab-first-tab'); ?> to deliver the content.
About the risqué, well, I can see that Google and other search engines will fetch *http://site.com/article-one/?tab=first_tab* instead of http://site.com/article-one/, making users come to that URL instead of showing the home page with the tab content selected automatically.
The problem now is the implementation to avoid that.
Hashbang: From what I learned, I should do this.
HREF should become site.com/article-one/#!first-tab
JS should extract the "first-tab" of the href and pass it out to $_GET (just for the sake of not using "data-tab").
JS should change the URL to site.com/article-one/#!first-tab
JS should detect if the URL has #!first-tab, and show the selected tab instead of the default one.
Now, for the server-side implementation, here is where I'm kind lost in the woods.
How Wordpress will handle site.com/article-one/?_escaped_fragment_=first-tab?
Do I have to change something in .htaccess?
What should have the HTML snapshot? My guess is all the site, but with the requested tab showing, instead of showing only the content.
I think that I can separate what Wordpress will handle when it detects the _escaped_fragment_. If is requested, like by Google, it will show all the content plus the selected content, and if not, it's because AJAX is requesting it and will show only the content. That should be right?
I'm gonna talk third person.
Since this has no responses, I have a good one why you should not do this. Yes, the same reason why Twitter banged them:
http://danwebb.net/2011/5/28/it-is-about-the-hashbangs
Instead of doing hashbangs, you should make normal URIs. For example, an article with summary tab on should be "site.com/article/summary", and if it is the default one that pops out (or is it already requested) it also should change to that URI using pushState().
If the user selects the tab "exercises", the URL should change to "site.com/article/exercises" using pushState() while the site loads the content throught AJAX, and while you still maintain the original href to "site.com/article/exercises". Without JavaScript the user should still see the content - not only the content, the whole page with the tab selected.
For that to work, some editing to the .htaccess to handle the /[tab] in the URL should be done.
Let's say I have a URL: http://example.com/person/list
This website will display a list of people. The list of people get very long, so eventually I build in pagination. Let's say 10 people per page. The URL looks something like this:
http://example.com/person/list?page=2
If I click the next page link, I will be taken to page 3:
http://example.com/person/list?page=3
This is good because if I copy and paste the URL to a friend, she will be directed to page 3 immediately.
Let's say that I now incorporate AJAX, and the page requests are ajax calls using jQuery. The original URL is http://example.com/person/list and when a user clicks on the next page link, the URL in the address bar doesn't change.
This is bad because if I'm on page 3, the URL in the address bar doesn't reflect this anymore.
There are multiple jQuery history plugins which will change the URL, however, these will ONLY change the portion of the URL which is after the hash mark #. Information after the hash mark is not sent to the server.
If I'm using a history plugin, the URL can be changed to http://example.com/person/list#page=2
My problem with this approach is: If someone copies and pastes this URL to a friend, when the friend requests this URL, I have no idea which page the user is intending to look at. Therefore, my best approach is to load all of the people entries onto the page, and have javascript select which page to display based on the information after the hash mark. This is a problem because I started to paginate the pages to reduce the amount of information being pulled back from the server in the first place!
What options do I have, such that I can have the back button be usable with Ajax, but also have bookmarkable links which do not require me to get all info from the server.
As I recently learned from my question you have to check the hash-part of the url after the 'friend' opened the link and fetch the content using ajax.
Or you can rewrite it on the server-side to http://example.com/person/list?page=2
You could not list anything until the page loads and then have ajax load the appropriate page.
Another option would be to load the first page as normal and then have javascript check the page hash to load the appropriate page.
For very small loads (and I assume loading 10 people is 'fast'), the second option is probably the best as it shouldn't cause too much disruption of the UI.
Option one has a downside as far as SEO goes, as search engines won't index the content if it's not loaded.
I'm trying to enter a list of items into Google Base via an XML feed so that, when a user searches for one of these items and then clicks the search result link in Google Base (or plain Google), the user is directed to a dynamic Web page on my Web site. I'm assuming that the only way to specify a specific link (either static or dynamic) is through the attribute in the XML feed. Is that correct? So, for example, if my attribute is:
http://www.example.com/product1-info.html
the user will be directed to the product1-info.html page.
But if, instead of a static product page, I want to have the user redirected to a dynamic page that generates search results from my local database (on my Web site) for all products containing the keyword "product1", would I be able to do something like this?:
http://www.example.com/products.php?productID=product1
Finally, and most importantly, is there any way to specify this landing page (or any specific landing page) from a "regular" Google search? Or is it only possible via Google Base and the attribute? In other words, if I put a bunch of stuff into Google Base, if any of it shows up in a regular Google search, is there a way for me to control what parameters get passed to the landing page (and thus, what search is performed on the landing page), or is that out of my control? I hope I explained this correctly. Thanks in advance for any help.
first question: Yes, urls containing a query_string part are allowed.
http://base.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=78170 says:XML example:
<link>http://www.example.com/asp/sp.asp?cat=12&id=1030</link>

Let me rephrase the second question to see if I understand it correctly (might be completely on the wrong track): E.g. products.php?productID=product1 performs a db-search for the product "FooEx" and products.php?productID=product2 for "BarPlus". Now you want google to show the link .../products.php?productID=product1 but not ....?productId=product2 if someone searched for "FooEx" and google decided that your site is relevant? Then it's the same "problem" we all face with search engines: communicate what each url is relevant for. I.e. e.g. have the appropriate (and only the appropriate) keywords appear in the title/h1 element of the page, avoid linking to the same contents with different urls (e.g. product.php?x=1&productId=1 <-> product.php?productId=1&x1, different urls requesting most probably the exact same contents), submit a sitemap, and so on and on....
edit:
and you can avoid the query-string part all together by using something like mod_rewrite (e.g. the front controller for the zend framework makes use of it) or by parsing the contents of $_SERVER["PATH_INFO"] (this requires the webserver to provide that information), e.g. http://localhoast/test.php/foo/bar -> $_SERVER['PATH_INFO']=='/foo/bar'
Also take a look at the link to this thread: How to redirect a Google search result to a dynamic Web page?, it contains the title of the thread, but SO is perfectly happy with How to redirect a Google search result to a dynamic Web page?, too. The title is "only" additional data for search engines and (even more) the user.
You can do the same:
http://www.example.com/products.php/product1/FooEx <-> http://www.example.com/products.php/product2/BarPlus
