no .php extenstion

Anon

Hi,

i added this line to my httpd.conf so .html files will be parsed with php4 mod in apache.

AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml .php .php3 .html

But now i want to use no extenstion so urls will look like this:

http://www.mysite.com/index/?id=12

instead of:

http://www.mysite.com/index.php?id?12

How can i get this to work? Can anyone help me out with those 'cool' urls 🙂

And i dont mean search engine comp. urls like explained in a collumn so its like this:

http://www.mysite.com/index/id/12

If you don't specify a file, it looks for something like index.html or default.html. There is an area in every web server where you can tell it what file to look for. You should just add index.php to that list. Make sure there are no other index or default files in the directory along with index.php, also. That should work.

well i dont mean index files,

i mean other files as well,

like archive.php and e.g. gallery.php

they should also look like this in the url:

archive?view=1

and gallery?id=34

Hi Rick,

Have you tried setting expose_php within php.ini to No?

I'm not sure whether this will work, but it's worth a try.

You will have to place all your php files into a directory (or directories) and then place an Apache "ForceType" directive on the directory.
For example:
If you make /app your base location for all php files, then place this in your Apache config file:

<Location /app>
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</Location>

Now give Aapache a restart and any files you place into the directory /app (and it's subdirectories) will be sent to PHP.

Btw, i found a script wich has to be added on top of every php script, and it works, so you can now use links like index/id/3434 instead of index.php?id=3434

But, there is one problem,

when you view a page, all links and images dont work because the server thinks that they are in the DIRECTORY id/3434 ...
Can anyone change/modify this little snippet of code so it will work?

<?php
$HTTP_TEMP_PATH_VARS = explode("/",$PATH_INFO);
array_shift($HTTP_TEMP_PATH_VARS);
reset($HTTP_TEMP_PATH_VARS);
$HTTP_PATH_VARS = array();
while( list($index,$key) = each($HTTP_TEMP_PATH_VARS) ) {
list($index,$val) = each($HTTP_TEMP_PATH_VARS);
$HTTP_PATH_VARS[$key] = $val;
$$key = $val;
}
?>
