Sorry I couldn't come up with a better title.
Here is my htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L,QSA]
And this is my problem:
localhost/validpage gives me the contents of localhost/validpage.php.
localhost/validpage/blah also gives me the same (validpage.php) page and so does localhost/validpage/blah/blah/...
Therefore the problem I am facing is link duplicity(in my words!).
How do I allow localhost/validpage.php to be accessed from localhost/validpage only and nothing else, not even localhost/validpage.php.
I have started a question on *Server****Fault*** too but with not much success.
The answer I have got is it cannot be done with htaccess alone.
By validpage I mean any valid page on the server. Since I am retrofitting an existing site with mod_rewrite for cleaner urls, I am looking for a relatively easy solution preferably with .htaccess only. However, any solutions are welcome.
what is the source attribute of your images, etc ???
absolute or relative?
<img src="/images/my.jpg" /> and <img src="images/my.jpg" /> point to different files when applying your rewrite rules.
You could try using this in your .htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
# if request has a php extension remove and redirect
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^((.*)\.php)$
RewriteRule ^(.*).php$ $1 [L,R=301]
# if request uri has no extension link to php file
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
I should rewrite your php scripts to friendly urls, and redirect requests using the .php extension.

I have a problem to hide php extension on my website using htaccess.
I saw a lot of webs to try to fix it and nothing.
But just html extension is hidden for me.
On my htaccess I have this to hide extensions (it's right after errors pages what is the first on my htaccess, but I don't think that influences):
#hide extensions
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
I can access to html files without extension, but for php files, I can't (404).
I deleted htaccess file and created it again but nothing.
And of course, on links to php and html files, I don't put the extension (for example url/file instead of url/file.php).
Assuming your .htaccess file is in the document root of your site then try the following instead:
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.html -f
RewriteRule (.+) $1.html [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule (.+) $1.php [L]
The $1 backreference in the RewriteCond TestString (ie. %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php) is a backreference to the captured group in the RewriteRule pattern (ie. (.+)), ie. the requested URL-path. This is the same backreference as used in the RewriteRule substitution (ie. $1.php).
A bit more explanation...
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php
The condition here that checks the existence of the requested resource plus the file extension is not strictly correct, depending on your file structure. It's not necessarily checking the same file that you will ultimately rewrite to in the following RewriteRule. See my answer to this ServerFault question for a detailed explanation of this.
The L flag is missing on the RewriteRule, so processing will continue through the file and could be getting rewritten again.
MultiViews needs to be disabled (if not already) for the rewrite to be successfully processed. This probably does not affect you currently, but if your rewrite included URL parameters; they would be missing. (The effect of MultiViews is that mod_negotation would issue an internal subrequest for file.php before your mod_rewrite directive is processed.)
I have no understanding at all on how to make/modify an htaccess rewrite rule, and I havent found anything to this specific issue.
I need to change
site.com/file.php
to
site.com/folder/file
So the .php also has to go. It needs to work for all files
Come on, there are plenty of examples for that. A little research and effort would be better.
Anyway, here is how your htaccess (in root folder) should look like
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/([^/]+)\.php(?:\s|\?) [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /folder/%1 [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^folder/([^/]+)$ /$1.php [L]
I want to remove the .php filename extension from the URL, I have already written code in the .htaccess file but I am missing something because by default when I open the page it doesn't have the .php extension, but if I manually add the .php extension in the URL then the page also opens, which I want to avoid.
.htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
# rewrite category
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^blog-category/(.*)$ blog-category.php?category=$1 [NC,L]
# rewrite blog
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^blog/(.*)$ blog.php?title=$1 [NC,L]
# error pages
RewriteEngine On
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
# on 301 error redirect to softcrayons.com
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^softcrayons.com
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.softcrayons.com/$1 [R=301,L]
You have nothing in that dynamic configuration file that actually prevents scripts being called directly. You have to add another redirection for that:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^/?([^.]+)\.php$ $1 [L,R=301]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^/?([^.]+)/?$ $1.php [L]
This will force an external redirection (so change the URL visible in the browser) and a second request for all requests that use the .php file name extension and where that file actually exists.
Note that you may have to take care to not create an endless rewrite loop.
I also added some additional condition to only internally rewrite to .php if that file actually exists.
If you really want to create an error, a http status 404 for requests to URLs that have the .php file name extension then replace the rewriting rule in the code above like that:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^/?([^.]+)\.php$ - [R=404]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^/?([^.]+)/?$ $1.php [L]
Note however that as already said I think that is a stupid thing to do. Why frustrate your users with an error? You know what they actually want and you can fulfill that request. Think positive!
And a general hint: you should always prefer to place such rules inside the http servers (virtual) host configuration instead of using dynamic configuration files (.htaccess style files). Those files are notoriously error prone, hard to debug and they really slow down the server. They are only provided as a last option for situations where you do not have control over the host configuration (read: really cheap hosting service providers) or if you have an application that relies on writing its own rewrite rules (which is an obvious security nightmare).
HTML:
Index
.htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
Link will redirect you to the home.php file, and your url will be example.com/home hope this will help you.
Greetings!
## hide .php extension snippet
# To externally redirect /dir/foo.php to /dir/foo
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,L]
# To internally forward /dir/foo to /dir/foo.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.php [L]`
I just need to know how can I stop displaying my php pages name in url
for example:
http://cbse.in/classxii/question_papers.php to http://cbse.in/classxii/ or http://cbse.in/classxii/question_papers/
http://cbse.in/classxii/computer_science/question_papers.php to http://cbse.in/classxii/computer_science/ or http://cbse.in/classxii/computer_science/question_papers/
http://cbse.in/classxii/computer_science/Chapter1/answers.php to http://cbse.in/classxii/computer_science/Chapter1/ or http://cbse.in/classxii/computer_science/Chapter1/answers/
I came to know this is possible by URL rewriting in htaccess.
But not clear idea on this, it will great if someone show me the correct and clear way to do this.
Please refer this link for info about htaccess redirection. Also, pls make sure that you've got it enabled within Apache, the webserver.

try this:
RewriteEngine on
#unless directory, remove trailing slash
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/$ $1 [R=301,L]
#redirect external .php requests to extensionless url
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(.*)\.php([#?][^\ ]*)?\ HTTP/
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.php$ $1 [R=301,L]
#resolve .php file for extensionless php urls
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L]
You need to use Mod Rewrite. You can use this one Mod Rewrite generator: http://www.generateit.net/mod-rewrite/
I have php that works awesome
But I wanna change it from showing variables to look like dirs
eg:
example.com/?mode=page&page=15 to example.com/page/15
and
example.com/?mode=pic&picid=136 to example.com/pic/136
however I only know of one way to do it, such as:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?mode=$1&page [R]
but that only works for one case, otherwise it 404s
I tried using RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA] so that the whole path gets passed. However, this way it doesn't seem to pass the CSS in my pages.
I'm extremely confused...
Here's my htaccess file
# Do not remove this line, otherwise mod_rewrite rules will stop working
RewriteBase /
IndexIgnore *
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^css/styles\.css$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA]
The problem is you are rewriting ALL urls to
index.php?url=
So your CSS files also get "redirected" to "index.php?url=" eg
index.php?url=css/styles.css
So you need to add "conditions" to your .htaccess so that certain files (or directories) dont get "redirected". You can do this by using "RewriteCond" (conditions) before your "RewriteRule ".
For example to not "redirect" the css file "css/styles.css" you could do
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^css/styles\.css$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?url=$1 [L,QSA]
