Dynamic sites - static

[IWeb]

Hello,

Once I read an article that it is possible to put some lines into the htaccess file so that dynamic pages look like static pages.

e.g.
dynamic:
viewpost.php?page=10&sid=1234
viewpost.php?page=22&sid=1234

after puting some lines in the htaccess file the dynamic files can be accesses through:

page10.php
page22.php

Does anyone know how this works?

thanks,

Well I don't know about .htaccess files, but I'm sure there's a way to do it with mod_rewrite. The only downside is that (in my opinion) it looks extremely difficult to use. Very flexible though. You can check out the docs if you want at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html.

Man, that would make it hard to evaluate booleans and regexps.

I'm glad that is NOT true.

ROFL@dalecosp!

That's from the movie Twelve Monkeys by the way.

And it is true, just not for booleans and regexps and most computer-related things 😃.
