Google Tapping your own module

Posted: Thu Aug 21, 2003 3:55 pm

I'm having problems getting a /modules.php?name=Drivers link to redirect to a /drivers.html address. I added this in my .htaccess file:

#Drivers
RewriteRule ^drivers.html modules.php?name=Drivers

Unfortunately both /modules.php?name=Drivers and /drivers.html are valid links, but the link that points to /modules.php?name=Drivers won't redirect to /drivers.html.

It's not like lets say the /modules.php?name=FAQ link that when you click it you automatically go to /faq.html.

Does something have to be added in header.php?

Oops, I think I figured it out:

I added this (header.php):

function replace_for_mod_rewrite(&$s) {
$urlin = array(
"'(?<!/)modules.php\?name=Drivers'",
"'(?<!/)modules.php\?name=News&file=article&sid=([0-9]*)&mode=([a-z]*)&order=([0-9]*)&thold=([0-9]*)'",

and

$urlout = array(
"drivers.html",
"article-\\1-\\2-\\3-\\4.html",

By looking at the lising of urlin and urlout it looked as if zx put everything in order, maybe b/c it won't work otherwise. Either way I kept it in an order type of thing. Could someone just tell me if this will work permanently without causing some sort of flaw? Thanks!

Believe me if I wanted to jack up my post count I could easily do so in the mysql database.
