.htaccess mod_rewrite

[urgido]

how i can remove the ".php" extension in url address bar using .htaccess but automatically??


ex: when user type: www.mysite.com/forum.php
and remove automatically the file extension to be: www.mysite.com/forum
o the address url bar

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.php

can serve www.mysite.com/forum.php for a request www.mysite.com/forum
(You may need to change all links accordingly)

Is it just me or is the htaccess stuff confusing, especially when different hosts don't allow certain htaccess commands

I wonder.....

My .htaccess is as follows;

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.htm $1.php [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.html $1.php [nc]
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.asp $1.php [nc]
RewriteRule ^locate.php index.php?section=locate
RewriteRule ^available.php index.php?section=available
RewriteRule ^news.php index.php?section=news
RewriteRule ^features.php index.php?section=features
RewriteRule ^extras.php index.php?section=extras

You can see what it's doing, but do I have create a new line for every 'section'? Or can it be done with a global wildcard?
