.htaccess mod rewrite assistance!

I'm having an issue with mod rewrite.


eg:

url: http://www.domain.com/result.php?url=google.com

I want url to be accessible by either:

http://www.domain.com/google.com or
http://www.domain.com/google-com


$5 via paypal for the first person with the fix

 

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteRule (.[^/]*) /result.php?url=$1 [NC,L]

PHP:

 

thanks MyVodaFone, but if http://www.domain.com/result.php?url=google.com is entered as a url it doesnt automatically change to http://www.domain.com/google.com

can that be done?

 

As in the PM I just replyed to... you dont enter domain.com/result.php?url=google.com you enter domain.com/google.com

Which means you need to change how you are writting your links: possible domain.com/<?echo $your-search;?>

 

For this u need to change ur code and .htaccess wont do this

 

This might need some tweeking:

1, create or add to folder /includes/ajax.js

ajax.js

var serverProtocol = (window.document.location.protocol ? window.document.location.protocol : 'http:');
var serverURI = (window.document.location.hostname ? serverProtocol+'//'+window.document.location.hostname : '');
function ajax(url,method,process_function){
	var XMLHttpRequestObject = false;
    if ( window.XMLHttpRequest ){
	    XMLHttpRequestObject = new XMLHttpRequest();
    }
    else if ( window.ActiveXObject ){
        XMLHttpRequestObject = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
    }
	if( XMLHttpRequestObject ){
  	    var data_source = url + '&_t=' + Math.random();
   	    if (method=="POST") {
			XMLHttpRequestObject.open( "POST", data_source );
		} else {
			XMLHttpRequestObject.open( "GET", data_source );
		}
   	    XMLHttpRequestObject.onreadystatechange = function(){
			if ( XMLHttpRequestObject.readyState == 4 && XMLHttpRequestObject.status == 200 ){
				var xmlDocument = XMLHttpRequestObject.responseXML;
				delete XMLHttpRequestObject;
				XMLHttpRequestObject = null;
				process_function(xmlDocument);
			} else {
				process_function(xmlDocument);
			}
	    }
    	XMLHttpRequestObject.send( null );
	}
}

Code (markup):

2, write into your page head> section:

<script src="/include/ajax.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script>

PHP:

3, write to the body> section ( where your adding the form to submit )

    <div id="overlay"></div>

<script type="text/javascript">
	function checkUrl(search_form)
	{
		url_check=document.search_form.domain.value.toLowerCase();
		var url=url_check.split('.');
		var final_letter=url_check.substring(url_check.length-1,url_check.length)
		
		if(final_letter=='.') {alert("Please type a valid url"); return false;}
		if(url_check=='www.') {alert("Please type a valid url"); return false;}
		else
		if(url_check.split('/').length>1){alert("Please type a valid url"); return false;}
		else
		if(url_check.split(' ').length>1){alert("Please type a valid url"); return false;}
		else
		if(url.length<2) {alert("Please type a valid url"); return false;}
		else
		if(url[0]=='www' && url[1]=='www') {alert("Please type a valid url"); return false;}
		else {
			document.getElementById('overlay').style.display='block';
			if(url[0]!='www') 
				searchurl(serverURI+'/www.'+url_check+'/');
			else
				searchurl(serverURI+'/'+url_check+'/');
		}
		return false;
	}
	
	function searchurl(url) {
		ajax(url+'?ajax=1','GET',function(){setTimeout('window.location="'+url+'"',1000)});
	}
</script>

<form name="search_form" action="/" onsubmit="checkUrl(search_form); return false;">
			<input name="domain" value="www." type="text">
			<input value="Check" type="submit">

</form>

If your still having problems with results.php feel free to PM me for a solution


EDIT your new .htaccess will be something like this ( not tested )

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

RewriteRule www.(.*)\.(.*) /result.php?url=$1 [NC,L]

RewriteRule (.*)\.(.*) /result.php?url=$1 [NC,L]
