Mod_rewrite is an Apache module that rewrites browser requests before other modules see them. It uses directives like RewriteEngine, RewriteCond, and RewriteRule that can be placed in the Apache config file or .htaccess files. RewriteCond defines conditions and RewriteRule defines rewrite patterns and substitutions. Mod_rewrite is commonly used to implement "friendly" URLs for search engine optimization and to map old URLs to new URLs after site changes.

URL Mapping, with and without mod_rewrite
Yeah, we all have to use mod_rewrite. But there are alternatives in many cases. URL mapping is a much bigger picture than just RewriteRule.
mod_rewrite
This document provides an introduction to mod_rewrite, which allows URL matching and transformation in Apache. It outlines key concepts like RewriteRule, RewriteCond, and RewriteFlags. Regular expressions basics are covered, like wildcards and character classes. Examples show URL beautification and conditional rewrites. RewriteMap is described for more complex rewrites using external programs or files. Caveats of mod_rewrite in .htaccess files are noted, such as relative paths and inability to enable RewriteLog.
Apache Rewrite Rules
Apache rewrite rules allow hiding actual URLs, redirecting requests, and reformatting URLs to make them more user-friendly and search engine optimized. The mod_rewrite module is used to catch and rewrite URLs according to conditions and rules. RewriteRule defines the pattern to match and substitution, and optional flags control behavior. RewriteCond can define additional conditions, and server variables provide information about the request. Examples demonstrate common uses like rewriting product IDs and enforcing www, redirecting to other domains, and time-based content delivery.

PHP POWERPOINT SLIDES
PHP is a server-side scripting language that can be embedded into HTML pages using PHP tags. When a PHP page is requested, the server will execute any PHP code and output the results. PHP allows variables, control structures, and functions to handle tasks like form processing, file uploads, and database access. Functions like file() can read file contents into an array, and files can be uploaded and moved using the $_FILES array and move_uploaded_file() function. PHP scripts can generate dynamic web page content on the server before sending the page to the client.
Apache - Mod-Rewrite
Mod_rewrite is an Apache module that allows flexible and powerful URL rewriting. It uses rule-based parsing of URLs with conditions that can check server variables, headers, timestamps and databases. Rules are processed in the order defined, with patterns matched against the URL and substitutions to rewrite the URL. Conditions are checked before rules are applied, allowing complex rewrite scenarios.
Laravel & Composer presentation - WebHostFace
Getting started with Laravel requires PHP version 5.4 or greater, the PHP-MCrypt extension, and mod_rewrite. Composer is used to install Laravel and manage dependencies. Laravel follows the MVC pattern with models handling business logic and database interactions, views handling templates, and controllers connecting models and views based on URLs. RESTful URLs point to resources and return data. Routes map URLs to controllers and resources. The artisan CLI tool generates code and manages tasks like routes and migrations. Important Laravel files include routes, configuration, and the public index file. Features include the Blade templating engine and Eloquent ORM.

Article16
There are two types of URLs: dynamic and static. Dynamic URLs are generated from database queries and can change, while static URLs do not change. Search engines prefer static URLs because they are more easily indexed and understood by users. However, many websites rely on dynamic URLs from databases. The Apache mod_rewrite module allows turning dynamic URLs into static URLs in a way that is invisible to users and search engines through URL rewriting rules. This improves search engine optimization without requiring recoding of all URLs. Tools are available to help set up URL rewriting without technical knowledge of mod_rewrite syntax.

Employers get more responses to their job ads than ever, but the scattershot approach most job seekers take makes it easy to stand out from the crowd. Come learn what employers are looking for, but would never mention in their ads. Topics will include resumes, cover letters, and personal branding, from a developer who has hired developers and just completed a successful job search himself.
Bio
Dave Ross has been developing software professionally for 11 years, and currently works as a lead developer strengthening teams to build amazing web sites and applications. He's active in the local tech scene, running a PHP user group and speaking at other groups in the area. In addition, he finds time to develop plugins for Wordpress, a popular open source content management system, and volunteers at a local cat shelter.
NoSQL & MongoDB
The document discusses NoSQL and MongoDB. It notes that NoSQL databases are not relational, use eventual consistency instead of ACID properties, and assume a reliable environment. It also mentions that NoSQL uses key-value pairs instead of schemas and is generally faster than SQL databases, though with weaker consistency guarantees. MapReduce is discussed as a programming model used by some NoSQL databases to handle large-scale data processing across clusters. Popular NoSQL databases including MongoDB, Cassandra, CouchDB, and Redis are also listed.
Date and Time programming in PHP & Javascript
The document discusses the results of a study on the impact of climate change on coffee production. Researchers found that suitable land for coffee production could decline by up to 50% by 2050 due to rising temperatures and changing rain patterns associated with climate change. Arabica coffee was found to be especially threatened, as its growing regions may shrink by nearly 80% this century according to the study's climate models. The findings suggest that climate change could significantly impact global coffee supply and quality in coming decades if greenhouse gas emissions are not reduced.

Web App Security: XSS and CSRF
The document discusses common web security threats like cross-site scripting (XSS) and cross-site request forgery (CSRF). It notes that over half of identity theft cases are internal and that the web remains vulnerable. The document recommends ways to prevent XSS like sanitizing user input and using nonces to prevent CSRF. Additional resources are provided for further information on XSS and CSRF.
The Mobile Web: A developer's perspective
Dave Ross, a lead developer with 10 years of experience, gave a presentation on the mobile web from a developer's perspective. He discussed how modern phones can access the web using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and cookies, but not Flash. He provided guidance on designing for various mobile screen sizes, using liquid layouts, big buttons, minimal text input, and moderate JavaScript. He recommended testing on emulators for iPhone, Blackberry and Android.
Balsamiq Mockups
Dave Ross gave a presentation about Balsamiq Mockups at the Suburban Chicago PHP & Web Development Meetup on November 5, 2009. Balsamiq Mockups is a tool for creating low-fidelity wireframes and prototypes that allows users to quickly design and test concepts. The presentation showed how Balsamiq Mockups can be used to create simple sketches to illustrate website and application designs for clients or users to give feedback before significant development work begins. The tool aims to provide an easy way to get conceptual feedback early in the design process.
LAMP Optimization
The document discusses optimizing a LAMP stack for faster performance. It provides tips for optimizing Linux to prevent swapping and disable access timestamps. For Apache, it recommends caching static content in RAM using mod_cache and using mod_evasive to block attacks. For MySQL, it suggests optimizing the key buffer, query cache and using the InnoDB storage engine. For PHP, it advises upgrading to PHP 5.3 for its native MySQL driver, using accelerators like APC, and enabling output buffering.
Lint - PHP & Javascript Code Checking
This document discusses various lint tools for PHP and JavaScript code checking. It describes how lint was originally developed at Bell Labs for C code checking and does static code analysis without execution. For PHP, the built-in php -l command and third party tools like PHPLint are presented. For JavaScript, JSLint is highlighted as a tool that detects obscure errors. The document notes that lint tools find technical errors but not logical errors.
Cufon - Javascript Font Replacement
Cufón is a JavaScript font rendering library that allows web developers to use custom fonts on websites. It works by converting TrueType fonts to vector outlines that are rendered using HTML5 canvas or VML depending on the browser. Cufón generates the necessary JavaScript and font files, which just need to be included in a webpage to replace text with the custom font. While not perfect, it has provided a workaround for custom web fonts until modern techniques like CSS font-face are more widely supported. The presentation provided an overview of how Cufón works and its advantages over other font techniques.

Apache mod_rewrite
- 1. Apache mod_rewrite Dave Ross The West Suburban Chicago PHP Meetup April 3, 2008
- 2. mod_rewrite is an Apache module that takes what the browser requests and “rewrites” it into something else before the other Apache modules see it
- 3. Request Apache Request mod_rewrite Apache directives Other modules
- 4. mod_rewrite directives can go in the Apache config file (httpd.conf) or in an .htaccess file if I have to put them in httpd.conf, I usually make a separate file and include it Include rewrite_rules.conf
- 7. RewriteRule {pattern} {substitution} [{flags}] {pattern} is regular expression to match {substitution} is a string to replace that URL with. It can contain variables, reference parts of the {pattern}, or it can be the special “no substitution” string: - {flags} let you define behavior, like making the browser [R]edirect to the rewritten URL, telling the browser the page is [G]one, or returning a certain MIME [T]ype.
- 8. For a full list of RewriteCond and RewriteRule options, read the docs at: Get really nice “cheat sheets” you can print at:
- 10. Search engines like “friendly” URLs. How else are they supposed to know index.php?postid=6 is a different page than index.php?postid=7 ?
- 11. Programs like WordPress and Drupal have support built-in. They'll even write the .htaccess for you. How sweet is that?
- 12. Another common use of mod_rewrite is to map old URLs to new URLs
- 13. Say you change your CMS... Search engines have links, and users have bookmarks to pages in your old CMS. You don't want 404 Not Found errors when they visit those URLs again. So you use mod_rewrite to convert URLs in one format to another
- 14. Need More Info? There's a mod_rewrite tutorial at: This site not only has a tutorial, it has an active message board just about mod_rewrite:
