<p>Assume we have recently renamed the page
|
|
<code>foo.html</code> to <code>bar.html</code> and now want
|
|
to provide the old URL for backward compatibility. However,
|
|
we want that users of the old URL even not recognize that

the pages was renamed - that is, we don't want the address to

change in their browser.</p>
|

</dd>
|

|

<dt>Solution:</dt>
|
|
|

<dd>
|
|
<p>We rewrite the old URL to the new one internally via the

following rule:</p>
|

|

<div class="example"><pre>

RewriteEngine on
|

RewriteRule ^<strong>/old</strong>\.html$ <strong>/new</strong>.html [PT]

<dd>
|
|
<p>Assume again that we have recently renamed the page
|
|
<code>foo.html</code> to <code>bar.html</code> and now want
|
|
to provide the old URL for backward compatibility. But this
|
|
time we want that the users of the old URL get hinted to
|
|
the new one, i.e. their browsers Location field should
|
|
change, too.</p>
|
|
</dd>
|
|
|
|
<dt>Solution:</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>
|
|
<p>We force a HTTP redirect to the new URL which leads to a
|
|
change of the browsers and thus the users view:</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><pre>
|
|
RewriteEngine on
|
|
RewriteRule ^<strong>/foo</strong>\.html$ <strong>bar</strong>.html [<strong>R</strong>]

<dt>Discussion</dt>
|
|
|
|
<dd>
|
|
<p>In this example, as contrasted to the <a href="#old-to-new-intern">internal</a> example above, we can simply
|
|
use the Redirect directive. mod_rewrite was used in that earlier
|
|
example in order to hide the redirect from the client:</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><p><code>
|
|
Redirect /foo.html /bar.html
|
|
</code></p></div>

<dt>Solution:</dt>

<dd>
|
|
<p>We just rewrite the URL to the CGI-script and force the
|
|
handler to be <strong>cgi-script</strong> so that it is
|
|
executed as a CGI program.
|
|
This way a request to <code>/~quux/foo.html</code>
|
|
internally leads to the invocation of
|
|
<code>/~quux/foo.cgi</code>.</p>

<p>How can we make URLs backward compatible (still

<dt>Solution:</dt>
|

<dd>
|
|
<p>We rewrite the name to its basename and test for
|
|
existence of the new extension. If it exists, we take
|
|
that name, else we rewrite the URL to its original state.</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><pre>
|
|
# backward compatibility ruleset for

# rewriting document.html to document.php
|
|
# when and only when document.php exists
|
|

RewriteCond $1.php -f

RewriteCond $1.html !-f

<dd>
|
|
<p>This example uses an often-overlooked feature of mod_rewrite,
|
|
by taking advantage of the order of execution of the ruleset. In
|
|
particular, mod_rewrite evaluates the left-hand-side of the
|
|
RewriteRule before it evaluates the RewriteCond directives.
|
|
Consequently, $1 is already defined by the time the RewriteRule
|
|
directives are evaluated. This allows us to test for the existence
|
|
of the the original (<code>document.html</code>) and target
|
|
(<code>document.php</code>) files using the same base filename.</p>

<dd>The goal of this rule is to force the use of a particular
|
|
hostname, in preference to other hostnames which may be used to
|
|
reach the same site. For example, if you wish to force the use
|
|
of <strong>www.example.com</strong> instead of
|
|
<strong>example.com</strong>, you might use a variant of the
|
|
following recipe.</dd>

|
|
<p>For sites running on a port other than 80:</p>
|
|
<div class="example"><pre>
|
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com [NC]
|
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
|
|
RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^80$
|
|
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://www.example.com:%{SERVER_PORT}/$1 [L,R,NE]
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>And for a site running on port 80</p>
|
|
<div class="example"><pre>
|
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.example\.com [NC]
|
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
|
|
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://www.example.com/$1 [L,R,NE]
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
If you wanted to do this generically for all domain names - that
|
|
is, if you want to redirect <strong>example.com</strong> to
|
|
<strong>www.example.com</strong> for all possible values of
|
|
<strong>example.com</strong>, you could use the following
|
|
recipe:</p>
|
|
|
|
<div class="example"><pre>
|
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\. [NC]
|
|
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^$
|
|
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [L,R,NE]
|
|
</pre></div>
|
|
|
|
<p>These rulesets will work either in your main server configuration
|
|
file, or in a <code>.htaccess</code> file placed in the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#documentroot">DocumentRoot</a></code> of the server.</p>
