mod rewrite

[Jon Slaughter]

How the heck do I get mod rewrite to add extensions to any file?

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1\.php [nc]

To me that should find any group of characters(such as any path) and then
add the .php to the end? But this doesn't work and gives me a server error.
If I remove the $ in front of the 1 then it does but ofcourse all my links
end up as 1.php

I can also do something like

RewriteRule ^3(.*)$ $1\.php [nc]

and all my links will be redirected to 3---.php

What I want is to take

[url] into [url].php

(without query string and or other special chars such as ([^&?]&) or [QSA])


I just can't understand why the following does not work ;/

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1\.php [nc]

$1 should be whatever is matched by (.*)? (which should be the whole url?)
In any case I can't see how its an error?

Thanks,
Jon

http://www.workingwith .me.uk/articles/scripting/mod_rewrite will probably
help you get to grips with mod_rewrite, at least it scratches the surface
of what's possible.

Yeah, I've seen that site... but there seems to be something wrong with my
code that isn't explained on such basic sites

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ 1\.php [nc]

works fine for what its does but I cannot refer to the group (.*) using $1
like I am suppose to be. If the pattern is not so general then it works...
it acts like its not matching correctly.

Why the n flag? That's what's causing the server error, I think.

no
means no case. wasn't working because of recursion I guess,

#RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php$

RewriteRule ^(.*)[/]$ /Index.php\?$1/Main.php



essentially works but need to par it down to only work in specific cases
