papercut Posted August 9, 2004 Posted August 9, 2004 Hi In my quest to be top in my field I am trying to find out if it is possible to use the amazing mod rewrite facility to turn the whole of the OsCommerce site into HTML docs? If anyone knows how to do this let me know!! :blink: Cheers Guys
Guest Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 Excellent question and, I'm looking for the answer as well. Any help on this from you much more experienced PHP/OSC programmers would be greatly appreciated. JP
wizardsandwars Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 Just wondering why you would want to go through the trouble? Especially since 99.99 pct of all search engines index php sites with dynamic URLs equally with HTML sites, and have done so for nearly 2 years! Why would you want to change it? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit. If you have a question about any of my posts here, your best bet is to contact me though either Email or PM in my profile, and I'll be happy to help.
Guest Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 Because a URL with the product name, or the category name, in the url will do better than one without it, all other things being equal. JP
wizardsandwars Posted September 10, 2004 Posted September 10, 2004 But you certainly wouldn't need mod rewrite to insert the product name www.adomain.com?x=Cool_Product and you could use the hash name for a category www.adomain.com?Cool_Category=Cool_Product What's that have to do with converting the entire site to HTML? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit.
