How to convert php pages to html using .htaccess

I want to ask if there is a way by using the .htaccess to convert the php extension in url to html without problems.

for example of the url is like this:
http://www.domain.com/videos.php?v=listvideo
it change to be like this:
http://www.domain.com/videos-v-listvideo.htm

You need to use Apache's mod_rewrite
Add to your .htaccess file something like this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} videos(.+)\.htm$
RewriteRule videos-v-(.+)\.htm /videos.php?v=$1 [L,QSA]

You need to use Apache's mod_rewrite
Add to your .htaccess file something like this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} videos(.+)\.htm$
RewriteRule videos-v-(.+)\.htm /videos.php?v=$1 [L,QSA]


Thanks but seems your code is for this page "videos" only, I need to make it for all pages.
are you know a solution for this?

Next code converts all .htm files into a query to index.php,
get filename or path wiht $_GET['q']

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)\.htm$
RewriteRule (.+)\.htm /index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]

Next code converts all .htm files into a query to index.php,
get filename or path wiht $_GET['q']

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.+)\.htm$
RewriteRule (.+)\.htm /index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]


it didn't make any thing!

could you give me more details how do you what your script to work

Here's a script I wrote detailing how you can do mod_rewrite. It also contains a link to a very useful tutorial: http://www.codingforums.com/showpost.php?p=1032840&postcount=4

Moreover, this is a cheat sheet for explaining some of the symbols that you'll see in mod_rewrite: http://www.addedbytes.com/cheat-sheets/mod_rewrite-cheat-sheet/

If you have a specific problem or can't figure out something in particular please post the details and I'll do my best to assist you.

Thanks but when I added it as you wrote in that post I got server error 500, and when I did it as that tutorial it didn't make any change!

hope if any one could help me.

You should provide a rewrite rules or rewrite patterns to make a code.
I can't conjecture how you site's engine works.
Please describe fully what you want

I want the url to be like this :

http://www.domain.com/videos-v-listvideo.htm

for all php page of the site that have variables values in url like this :

http://www.domain.com/videos.php?v=listvideo

use this code

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([^\-]+)\-([^\-]+)\-([^\.]+)\.htm$
RewriteRule ([^\-]+)\-([^\-]+)\-([^\.]+)\.htm$ /$1.php?$2=$3 [L,QSA]

this code gets htm filename and split it into 3 parts.
first - file name with the php script
second - your variable name
third - variable value

if you try to load /index-get-contact.htm this code convert will convert it into query /index.php?get=contact

use this code

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/([^\-]+)\-([^\-]+)\-([^\.]+)\.htm$
RewriteRule ([^\-]+)\-([^\-]+)\-([^\.]+)\.htm$ /$1.php?$2=$3 [L,QSA]

this code gets htm filename and split it into 3 parts.
first - file name with the php script
second - your variable name
third - variable value

if you try to load /index-get-contact.htm this code convert will convert it into query /index.php?get=contact

There is a misunderstanding here, I want to convert the php to html page, and this for the php pages with variables/values.
