I have a directory called frogpond i want to make sure that users can get to it if they put in FROGPOND or FrogPond in the url.
For instance. http://mywebsite.com/FROGPOND.... or
http://mywebsite.com/FrogPond....
I want it to go to http://mywebsite.com/frogpond/.....
It seems simple enough and i have tried several variations...but i never get it to work... and i get no errors...
Here is the code that i put in at the root level of the domain.
## This just makes sure that if anyone
## tries to access a directory by upper or lower case
## that they can get to it. Make sure the real directory
## is in lowercase
RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteRule ^FROGPOND http://mysite.com/frogpond/from.html
RewriteRule ^FrogPond http://mysite.com/frogpond/from.html
Any ideas on what i am doing wrong or how it could be done right

I'm trying to redirect a directory to the main index (which is in a sub dir already). I have tried a few differant things but nothing has worked. Like I said I dont want to use my domain, int he script. I have tried using the html ../ but that doesn't work. I guess if I have to, I can just use an html/php script and do it that way, but I would like to use htaccess instead. Any ideas?

Hello
I am new to using htaccess. I have got so far with my host but now I have run into an 'interesting' problem.
I've managed to restrict a directory which contains two test files index.php and test.php. When I try to access the directory itself I'm prompted for a username and password, if I enter the correct ones then index.php loads. However if I try and access either index.php or test.php then I am allowed to without any restriction.
.htaccess is
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /web2/user7423/website/learning/testing/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user
I know that I'm not supposed to have the .htpasswd file in my web directory but I'm taking this one step at a time. I want to get it working first before I use best practice.
I am using a very restrictive package on the host easily.co.uk, basically I have ftp access and nothing else.
If anyone has any ideas they would be much appreciated.
Paul

Morning all (it's a sunny Friday here in Ireland 
We are using an editor (FckEditor) which has a function to allow you to UPLOAD files to a set folder e.g. /images/
This folder needs to be 777 to allow the fckeditor to browse it and upload images.
However, want to add a .htaccess file into that folder so that via a URL to that folder http://www.domain.com/images/ that any .php files cannot be run.
If we add a standard:
<Files *.php>
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
</Files>
It stops the fckeditor browser working (which we still want to allow)....
We're a bit stuck and any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

I am working on a project were I am going make and send over 1000 postcards for a business and would like to post a form online for them to fill out. Everyone will go to the same index.html in a subdirectory but we want to make them fill special by typing in
www.mydomain.com/sub/JohnSmith(any name)
my htaccess would redirect that or whatever they type into that "JohnSmith" area to www.mydomain.com/sub/index.html
I AM VERY NEW AT HTACCESS!
Here is what I have came up with so far, which by the way does not work what so ever ( I get a 500 error.)
Redirect ^([A-Za-z]+)$ http://domain.com/sub/index.shtml [NC,L]
Thanks

Hi,
What is the htaccess lines/config I would require to ensure that all parts of my site (files & URLs) are protected by authentication, EXCEPT for a given limited set of URLs. For example all except "/api/.*" if this makes sense.
The actually authentication could be like the below, but it's how I wrap this in the directives...
AuthName "Dialog prompt"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/callagga/site/.htpasswd
Require valid-user
thanks

Although it should be simple enough (at first),it is becoming a nightmare for me (no great experience with mod_rewrite).
The site i working on is mostly a static one and been trying to create a dynamic one, based on existing urls
At root level htaccess i have a simple rewrite rule (RULE1) like this:
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/([^-]+)-foo-([^.]+).htm$ some_folder/php_page.php?var1=$1&var2=$2&var3=$3& ;var4=$4&var5=$5 [nc]
This creates urls like:
folder1/fodler2/folder3/page-foo-1.htm
Now consider this:
- folder1/folder2 are major categories with thousands of sub-pages in them
- there could be thousands of 301 redirection rules for this combo (folder1/folder2) (since many old htm pages will be transformed into php ones, either simple rewritte page.php into page.htm OR new url page-1.htm out of page.htm for paginaton)
I was thinking of making small htaccess in folder1/folder2 level and put there all rules for that combination of folders. That way, I thought it will be easier to maintaining and check my rules.
But i havent been able to make this work.
This is the htaccess of folder1/folder2 so far:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /folder1/folder2/
RewriteRule ^folder3/page-foo.htm$ folder3/page-foo-1.htm [R=301]
This gives me a 'page not found' error.
Searching some more I found a different solution I could follow.
Put all rules in root htaceess and group them like:
RewriteRule !^folder1/folder2/ - [S=100]
RewriteRule ^folder3/some-page1\.htm$ http://www.example.com/folder1/folder2/folder3/some-other-pa ge-1.htm [R=301,L]
If i understand this correclty it says something like:
If requested url do not start with folder1/folder2, ignore else proccess the 100 rules below.
I want to ask on differences on my two approaches (taking into account that in the end i will have nearly 65 thousands redirections/rewtitting rules).
Also, why the first approache fails?
Thank you for any advice tips

Hi, I'm just learning about rewrite and have a question....
I have the following line in my .htaccess file to redirect anything that uses file index.php
RewriteRule (.*) index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
This works great, too great in fact!
I have 2 possible links from my site that go to the same page.
They are
/index.php?products_id=84
/index.php?products_id=84:123456789
Is there any way to make the first link go through the rewrite, but exclude the second link?
I tried RewriteRule (.*) index.php?%{QUERY_STRING} !*products_id*:* [L]
But it didn't work 
What I was trying to say was 'process any request to index.php except anything that has products_id AND : in the query string.
Can you tell me if this is possible, or if there is a better way of achieving what I'm after?
Thanks for your help.
I'm trying to learn the syntax but am struggling

Obviously, I'm new to this. Call me a n00b, whatever. But I was just wondering (if anyone here knows what Tumblr is...) if there was there a way I can put htaccess on my blog to block an IP Address?
Thanks guys!

Hi,
i'm a noob in htaccess coding, so could you help me
i am trying to add a slash at the end of a given url.
how can i redirect url for example
http://site.example.com/cms to http://site.example.com/cms/
also cms is a directory, so i need a rewrite rule, which indicates that if ther's no other characters it will redirect.
http://site.example.com/cms - Redirect
http://site.example.com/cms/asd - Dont redirect
my htaccess code is :
# Turn on URL rewriting
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
# Protect application and system files from being viewed
RewriteRule ^(libs|modules) - [F,L]
#here should be redirect
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} /cms$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://site.example.lt/cms/ [R,L]
#redirect end
# Allow any files or directories that exist to be displayed directly
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
# Rewrite all other URLs to index.php/URL
RewriteRule .* /index.php?cms=1&url=$0 [PT,L]
Thanks
