Apache PHP & ASP search engine friendly URLs

Send that to FMI, they may found it interesting reading. FMI has such amateurish approach to their web site like no one else. Many older bookmarks point to nowhere! frown.gif

that is true for many many MANY sites out_there...so hpefully good habits can spread. Unfortunately, I have moved away from FM projects (just maintnance at this point) so I don't have enough "weight" to get into their face.

it is just sad that serch_engines can querry sites better than querries on the site....so at least they can leave nice URLs for us poor souls looking for some good info.

anyhow, I hope someone benifits from the reading!

All the best!

Yes, it is excellent article and thank you for it!

Thanks Leb.

That article will provide some useful information for a php/mySQL job I am currently working on smile.gif

I wish I had taken time to implement this eariler...

send me a note Garry if ur on windowz!

All the best!

No, don't use Windoz! Just OS X and Linux, for web-stuff.

I'll have to start learning about the ".htaccess" files now. (I really need a Sys Admin to work with me.)

All the best.

Garry

Yeah, we had already started looking into .htaccess for directory-level password access and custom Apache error pages (like custom 404's) and now it seems to have yet another function... alas, there always seems to be more to learn, eh? I'll get around to spending more time on the command line eventually.... eventually.

P.S. They seem to be a little more opinionated over there than here, too, and there's more tech-talk than I'm comfortable with, but it was nice to tour a world I've only had to stagger into a few times. Thanx, Leb i Sol!

Garry ...sorry don't get many apples arround here ( it woould be nice though)

Steve- apache is really really nice for what it does...everything else is a matter of "tweaking it".....don't get disscouraged by the "nerd-talk".....

after all .htaccess is nothing but a text file wink.gif

Well, I just thought/wanted to share the results of my "never-ending-snoopping"

Good luck guys!

& all the best!

RE: I'll get around to spending more time on the command line eventually.... eventually.

That is the reason, why I've updated my Apple IIe to CP/M operating system and I had all the time PC next to my 7 or 10 Macs smile.gif

We used to use Z80 cards (with CPM) in IIe's. We ran dBase, Wordstar and a Spreadsheet. It was pretty good smile.gif

We had 40 of them running on a 300baud dial-up WAN.

Those were the days wink.gif

Garry

Me too smile.gif

BTW, my Z80 card was from small unimportant start-up company -- Microsoft, which specialized in small ad-ons for powerfull personal computers -- PC -- for billion dollar companies like Apple.

I often wonder what happen to them?
