ApacheRewrite
internal redirect
Another solution for getting the browser to use the right filename for saving is to use mod_rewrite to hide the fact that you are using a script at all. Either in the httpd.conf or a .htaccess file, include something like the following:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/downloads/(.*) /getFile.php?filename=$1 [NE]
mod_rewrite will translate the url, and the browser (and the user) won't know the difference (SEO-Urls)
external redirect
eg. redirect http://crazylinux.de/wiki/TAR to http://crazylinux.de/TAR
RewriteRule ^/wiki/(.*)$ http://crazylinux.de/$1 [R=301,L]
the browser will see the difference
Redirect visitor by domain name
In some cases the same web site is accessible by different addresses, like domain.com, www.domain.com, www.domain2.com and we want to redirect it to one address.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www.domain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.domain.com/$1 [R,L]
In this case the requested URL http://domain.com/foo.html would redirected to the URL http://www.domain.com/foo.html.
Force SSL-Redirect (for special directory)
How to redirect http-traffic automatically to https
RewriteEngine on
#RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} !^443$
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
#for a special directory
RewriteRule ^/administrator(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/administrator$1 [R,L]
#or for the whole server
RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
