HTML - .htaccess Check

hey... i didnt know what forum to post this in, so admins, do what you want with this thread...

I've recently taken over the web designing for a company... the site is already made, and the previous designer has dropped out, and the company needs me to make updates, add articles, etc. There are .htaccess files in almost every directory and subdirectory throughout the site. When I go to add an image, and make a link to it on a page, the image is not found, even though the source is correct. ex - initially, the page links to an image at "images/image1.jpg" . I make an image2.jpg, place it in the right folder, and try to link to it - "images/image2.jpg" but the image cannot be displayed on the site (says it cannot be found - same as a 404). I am assuming this has to do with the htaccess permissions and all that stuff (also in each directory is a "_notes" subdirectory and another directory like that) but I'm not sure. I wikipedia'd htaccess files, and read that they were made for apache servers... the server hosting the site I am working on uses IIS... another confusing problem. Is there anyway to edit these .htaccess files so that I can add more images to the site? Also, why cant I see images these 'blocked' images? Is there any way to disable this blocking?

I am trying to get my .htaccess file to work with IE. It seems to work for with FF. Here is what I have:

Code:

ErrorDocument 404 /404.html

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots\.txt$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mydomain.com/$1 [R=301,L] 
</IfModule>

OK, guys.... Why does my .htaccess file keep getting rewritten? I change the file back, and within a few days it gets changed again.

Befo

Code:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/robots\.txt$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.GreeleyElectric\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.GreeleyElectric.com/$1 [R=301,L] 
</IfModule>

After:

Code:

Hi,
I've just installed an SSL certificate on a shared server which results in my URL being changed from :
http://www.mywebsite.com
to
https://web73.secure-secure.co.uk/mywebsite.com

I have a few pages that I want to use SSL on, how can I use .htaccess mod rewrite to change the secure url to -
https://www.mywebsite.com?

thanks

Hi there! I've got this .htaccess

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*/)$ index.php?$1
RewriteRule ^(.*#)$ index.php?$1

RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.mysite\.com\.ar$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?([^\.]+)\.mysite\.com\.ar$ [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?$1 [QSA,L]

So far it redirects whatever that looks like a folder (/something/, with an ending slash), and also any kind of subdomains.
Now I wish to make use of those subdomains for languages (like: us.mysite.com.ar, for the USA site).

Thing is, ALL of my images are linked like:

HTML Code:

src="/images/myimage.png"

So whether I'm on a different subdomain than the regular one, the images won't be linked correctly. Aaaand it's priority that the subdomain remains in the URL (no redirection).

Is there any way out of this without me having to replace every image (there are at least 200 xD)?

Otherwise, I could redirect everything to index.php no matter what is it, and then have it generate the corresponding file (in case of an image or other file), or generate a page (in case of a folder, like, i dunno: mysite.com.ar/news/). But isn't this a lot slower and heavier for the server?.

Anyway, please help me to have images in my site no matter what's the subdomain >.<

Thanks everyone for your ideas in advance!! =)

Hi,

At the moment I have my site redirecting to www.mysite.com if someone types mysite.com

Now what I am looking to do is also redirect people typing w.mysite.com , ww.mysite.com & wwww.mysite.com

This is the code I have in my .htaccess file currently

Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mysite\.com
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.mysite.com/$1 [R=301,L]

Let me know if you require anymore explaining.

Hey guys,
If I'm posting in wrong section I apologize

I have a small problem what I need help with. I use a free service for redirecting people to my mobile site, but there service is down for last 6 days or something got wrong. Anyway I decided to use .htaccess rewrite to redirect them to mobile site.

The problem I have is that I cant really find how to do it efficiently and what I need because I have two different mobile sites.

here it goes:

My site example.com

First mobile site is example.com/index.php?template=3
(this one is mainly for blackberry and all rest mobile devices, and I like this one to load in opera mini also if possible)

Second mobile site is example.com/index.php?template=5
(that one is specifically for iPhone and android phones)


I am really don't know how to do it please!

Thank you.

Ok guys I own the site www.top200.org. Currently there are multiple websites using bots to spam my lists with hits causing too much CPU time to be used and my provider shutting down my servers temporarily each time. I currently use Aardvark Top Sites script and I've heard of others having the same problem. A solution was posted to make a .htaccess file that prevents anyone, including bots from certain urls from accessing your site. So I created a .htaccess file and yet apparently the CPU time is still being overloaded because my lists are always down.

Please read the following code and tell me if this is the correct format for a file named .htaccess to block visitors from these certain sites from visiting mine

Once again, the file is titled .htaccess


RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$http(s)?://(www\.)?5sohbet\.net/.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$http(s)?://(www\.)?89erotik\.com/.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$http(s)?://(www\.)?aklimdasin\.net/.*$[NC,OR]
RewriteRule .* - [F,L]

I am trying to write an .htaccess file that accomplishes three things, but I can't get them to happen all at once. Do I have something out of order? (the file is not active right now)
I am trying to:
1) redirect all non-www to www (for the root directory main site)
2) redirect two specific pages to new pages and retain the link juice
3) not redirect two subdirectories that have other domains pointed to them (www.bigcountryacres.info points to the first and www.kidslovedrbarton.com points to the 2nd)

The following code almost works. The two old .htm pages on the main site are redirected to their .html versions just fine.
When going to a subdirectory, you can reach the index page the first time. Then if you link to a subpage and then go back to the home page link (just index.htm), it gets redirected to my main site instead. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?


Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/_BigCountryAcres/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/_DrBarton/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^integritivity.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.integritivity.com/$1 [L,R=301]
redirect 301 /WebDesign.htm http://www.integritivity.com/WebDesign.html
redirect 301 /index.htm http://www.integritivity.com/index.html

Thanks,
Robin

Hi all --

I am developing a site here . I am having some issues with my PDF's and the lightbox-esque extension I am using. I just need someone to go to this link specifically, and when you click on the PDF icon with the magnifying glass, do you get a "Drawing error" as well?

I've been searching around, and I can't really tell yet if this a problem with the file, or perhaps with something on my computer (I've heard some issues with Adobe making too many temp files, etc.)

If anyone can do that for me and let me know the results, I would be very happy!
Much appreciated, and thanks so much.

i'm a newbie when it comes to HTML/CSS
and, the question which i have right now, is for my myspace profile.
the question is about a checkbox.
here is the code that i have on my profile as of now:

HTML Code:

<form>
<a href="link"><input type="checkbox" name="mybox" value="1" />message</a>
<a href="link"><input type="checkbox" name="mybox" value="2" />comment</a>
<a href="link"><input type="checkbox" name="mybox" value="3" />pictures</a>
</form>

right now, when you click on the check box, it does not direct you to a link.
it just makes a pretty check in the box.
that's all.
so it makes it seem like check boxes are totally useless.
if you click on the actual word, for example, "pictures," you will be directed to the given link.
so, what i want, is that when you check the box, you will be directed to the given link.
or, even better, that maybe, say if you want to message me, you would check the check box by the word "message."
then, you would go over to a button that says "go" of something to that affect.
when you would click the "go" button, you would be directed to a messaging page.
or, if you wanted to go to my pictures, you would check the box by "pictures," then click the "go" button, and would be directed to my pictures.
is even possible to do on myspace?
and does it involve CSS?

hope that i made sense.

btw, on the <a href="link"> thing, i am aware of the fact that i did not give an actual link.
i took out the link and replaced it with the word "link" because i want to keep my myspace profile anonymous.

Hey guys,
Just got up my new site, and3 other pages than the homepage, and was wondering if there was a quick and easy way to do a browser check? The site is www.scubatoo.net. I know ther are errors in Firefox, if anyone can speculate on those I would appreciate it. As well I don't think that earlier versions that 7.0 of IE work correct either. If there is a quick way to do this please let me know.

Thanks,
Ryan
