Clearing cache should do the trick for you I think/hope. Try hitting ctrl+f5 if you’re on Firefox. (or was it ctrl+r ?)

The .htaccess file works fine for me now. So I’m happy!

clearing the browser cache will do it, *for your client*.

We use aggressive caching with ExpiresDefault “access plus 1 year”, but to circumvent that same agressive caching we use a global ‘serial number’ in all urls that mention cacheable files (images, js, css, etcetera), and part of our build process (Makefile) auto-updates it when some of that files changed, so /img/somefile.127.jpg got changed to /img/somefile.128.jpg in all generated html, and that some rewrite rules as

  RewriteRule (.*)\.[0-9]+\.js $1.js
  RewriteRule (.*)\.[0-9]+\.css $1.css
  RewriteRule (.*)\.[0-9]+\.html $1.html

permits that none of our files need to be renamed.

Using something like main.css?v=123456560823 also handles that problem.

EDIT: apparently using query strings only works with IE and FF. So, sdbruder’s way is def. the safest way!

what about when controller have same name as directory?

is any way to get work something like this:

example.com/con - calls con controller
example.com/con/file.jpg - shows image

I’d generally avoid stuff like this. Only asking for trouble I think, though you could give it a whirl and see what happens.

Okay, you might want to add:

<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
    AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/xhtml text/html text/plain text/xml text/javascript application/x-javascript text/css
</IfModule> 

Might want to add application/javascript in there as well, my local install of Apache 2.2.9 returned a javascript file with that type.

If the Dir DOES NOT exist - then the controller is called. So if you have a dir the same name as a controller - that controller will never be called. But this is the same problem with all .htaccess files anyway.

Like Bramme said, “I’d generally avoid stuff like this”. It’s the same thing as having two classes/functions called the same thing.

Just turn off directory listing and it should fall through to your controller.

#    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f 

You don’t need to do this. The RewriteCONDITION is if NOT a REAL FILE (which example.com/con/file.jpg is) THEN pass to index.php

The default htaccess CI provided in the documentation works for me. I looked around and saw yours. Copied it verbatum and fixed up the path. Works fantastic :D

Thanks.

how can i do this?

i have site
http://www.site.com
which was always redirected to
http://www.site.com/shop

since google is not happy with redirection, i need to make it accessible through main site like this.

http://www.site.com loads http://www.site.com/shop without redirection
and,
i need to do this in another site redirect http://www.site.com/shop/ to ww…w.site.com/...

thanks.

So are you looking for something like this?

You can redirect from the index to a file (like index.php) in the same way you can forward site.com to site.com/shop/

Xeoncross - I don’t think that’s what he was looking for, I think he needs two different rules.

#1 - Try this (not tested):

#2 - Try this (again, not tested but *should* work):

OR:

Check the differences between 301 and 302 codes, it’s important to choose the right one according to your needs.

...without redirection

I didn’t recomend a 301 or any other type of redirect because he stated that he wants the whole thing hidden from google/users eyes. In the same way we hide the “index.php/” with a default .htaccess.

I vote that you check to see if the query string includes the “shop/” part - then remove it if it does. Then either way load site.com/shop/index.php/

That’s what I thought at the beginning… But check the following quote:

I agree that it’s not smart to show the same content in both / and /shop - I’m sure Google won’t like it…
