How do we implement clean-urls in php using .htacces?
There are 2 cases we want to use:
1. We want to target to the php extension like this: http://example.com/home -> http://example.com/home.php
.htaccess
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php [L,QSA]
2. We want to target to index.php and add the extension as the GET veriable to index.php. Something like this happens in CMSes like Drupal too. http://example.com/home -> http://example.com/index.php?q=home
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] <code>
