Current URL
http://www.example.com/admin/data/img/gallery/myimages.jpg
http://www.example.com/admin/data/content/mycontents.html
So
Current SCRIPTS / HTMLS / FILES OF WEBPAGE CONTAIN and shows in browser source code
<img src="/admin/data/img/gallery/myimage.jpg">
<?php include("/admin/data/content/mycontents.html"); ?>
This is "CMS system" in a folder named "admin"
What i want to do is Hide the admin folder from every script /php/html output to browser.
So no body can see or search engines can't capture this area (Security concern)
So when the browser output the content or script it will rewrite the above urls to this
Removing the admin
http://www.example.com/data/img/gallery/myimages.jpg
http://www.example.com/data/content/mycontents.html
Inside browser source code
<img src="/data/img/gallery/myimage.jpg">
or
removing the data too
http://www.example.com/img/gallery/myimages.jpg
http://www.example.com/content/mycontents.html
Kindly help also it must work for www.example.com as well as example.com
Solution through htaccess and mod_rewrite
i do not have access to httpd.conf
Also i do not want to move the folder a lots of scripts are there in the folder so have to write a lot.
Also tell me where should i place it in the root or in the admin folder
Thank you
You could try adding this to the .htaccess file in your document root (where the "admin" folder is in):
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/admin/data/%{REQUEST_URI} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/admin/data/%{REQUEST_URI} -d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /admin/data/$1 [L]
The conditions check that if the request URI gets prepended with "/admin/data/", if it points to an existing file or directory. If it does, then rewrite the URI so that there's an "/admin/data/" in front of the request. If you don't want to be able to map directories into /admin/data, then remove the second condition (the one with -d) and remove the [OR] flag from the first.

I have a site https://sitename.com/web (example). So, full path to page is sitename.com/web/index.php. On ftp server there is folder /web which also contain second page file - index-2.php. How to avoid creating /web-2/ folder and redirect index-2.php to sitename.com/web-2 ?
Easy, create an .htaccess file inside the root folder of your site, then add the following lines to it:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^web-2$ index-2.php [QSA,L,NC]

I have a folder in my public_html directory named landingPages which obviously holds all our Landing Pages.
The problem is all the URLs on Google AdWords etc. are set to the public_html folder, for example:
http://www.example.com/landingPage1.php
Putting all the files in the new landingPages directory was done to clear up the public_html directory and seperate everything a bit but changing all the URLs is something we want to avoid.
I want that if you go to to http://www.example.com/landingPage1.php in the browser that it actually loads whats inside the landingPages folder so it calls http://www.example.com/landingPages/landingPage1.php in the background.
I have tried a few things but can't seem to find a catch all version to determine if whatever is requested in the browser is present in the landingPages folder and if so to re-direct or if this sort of catch all request is at all possible.
If not, I guess I would have to manually create rules for each file I want re-directed including any future created Landing Pages which is what I am trying to avoid here.
put this code in your .htaccess under the website root directory, this will check if the file exists in landingPages folder, if so, it will load the content of that file.
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/landingPages/$1 -f [NC]
RewriteRule ^([^/]+)$ /landingPages/$1 [L,QSA]
Ok, I'm clueless here...
I need to rewrite a directory structure and all sub-directories within it to a directory within the same server, but a root that is before the directory.
For example:
http://www.mydomain.com/Themes/default/css/folder
and all directories called upon after folder. Such as folder/sub_folder or folder/afolder/anotherfolder, it needs to include ALL sub-directories within the folder directory.
should be redirected to this:
http://www.mydomain.com
How do I do this via a .htaccess file within the folder path http://www.mydomain.com/Themes/default/css/folder?
Please someone help.
Thanks guys :)
The files within the directory structure still need to be accessible for that structure when called via PHP, but I don't want people being able to browse to http://www.mydomain.com/Themes/default/css/folder and be shown all subdirectories within that folderpath and/or all files. Same thing for all sub-directories that follow that folder path.
I'd like to be able to place the .htaccess file within the http://www.mydomain.com/Themes/default/css/folder directory on the server, but don't know exactly what code to use for this.
ALSO, even more challenging... The domain name can change, so I'd rather not use the domain name within the .htaccess file, instead perhaps use .. or . to go up a directory or a different method of grabbing the domain name within the .htaccess file.
Create a .htaccess file in /Themes/default/css/folder and place these lines there (it requires mod_rewrite):
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^.*$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/ [R=301,L]
It will redirect (301 Permanent Redirect) all requests to a folder to a homepage. If file is requested, it will allow it.
If you want to have it working for folders as well as files then remove the RewriteCond line -- it will redirect ALL requests (even for non-existing URLs) to a homepage.
If you will see "500 Internal Server Error" after creating such file, then it is your server configuration: mod_rewrite may not be enabled or it's directives (RewriteRule, RewriteCond, RewriteEngine) are not allowed to be placed in .htaccess. In any case -- check Apache's error log for exact error message (it will give you the exact reason).

I have a page deals.php which is placed at root directory that is being accessed by number of internal URLs with multi directory levels. for example this page would be accessed by both following urls.
http://domain/flights/asia/bangkok
http://domain/flights/bangkok
I am using this code in .htaccess to redirect to deals.php
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^flights/asia/([^/]+)/?$ deals.php?country=$1 [NC]
RewriteRule ^flights/([^/]+)/?$ deals.php?country=$1 [NC]
Now the problem here coming is that on deals.php all the images, script and style sheet files are not opening properly. If I try to fix it against one URL by placing ../../ in addresses of all images, script and css, it dont work for other URL.
How to solve this problem? what are the options?
Easy: DO NOT use ../ in links to any resources (images/css/js/etc) -- always use URL that is relative to the WEBSITE ROOT -- that is a "requirement" when you dealing with nice/not-real/rewritten URLs as such URL rarely points to the physical file location.
Lets assume you have a logo that is located at http://www.example.com/images/logo.png.
Now, instead of ../images/logo.png and/or ../../images/logo.png ALWAYS use /images/logo.png.
i think what you want is placing an baseurl in html page, so all the relative path will related to the baseurl, not the current URL in the navigator bar
Is it possible to set a default folder to access instead of a file like "index.html".
What I'd like to to is make it so that when a person visits my site they get redirected to a folder within the root of the domain. I am using a blogging engine and I need it to show up as the homepage but I don't want to install it in the root because I have other folders and files that need to be in the root directory. And I don't want to put them inside the blogging software's folder. I also don't want to use a 301 or 3XX redirect for SEO purposes.
If there's a way to do what I'm asking let me know. If not, let me know the best option otherwise.
Try this mod_rewrite rule:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ foo/bar [L]
This will rewrite requests to the directory where this rule is applied to to foo/bar. So if you put this rule in the .htaccess file in your document root and request http://example.com/, it will get rewritten to http://example.com/foo/bar.
