mod_rewrite html to php

[AmyDiane]

I'm new at all this, and need a little help.

My website has static html pages. I would like to add a feed from my blog to a few of those pages. I want to use a php script embedded in my html. If I change the page name from xxxx.html to xxxx.php the feed from my blog is included, but any link to that page is broken. I would like the server to process the php on my html page; I was hoping that I could use mod_rewrite in my .htaccess file to implement that. The GoDaddy (sorry, I told you I was new at this) documentation indicates that mod_rewrite is enabled on linux servers by default. I've been trying to figure this out all day, but can't seem to get it to work. It would be a big help if you could point me in the right direction.

You could treat your html files like your php files by adding a rule in your htaccess file like,

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .html

Hope this would be useful to you.

To do it with mod_rewrite, try

Options +FollowSymLinks

# Make sure the .php file exists
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+\.)html$ /$1php [QSA,L]

Hello.

I had Apache server and changed to Lighttpd..
I had this functions for mod_rewrite in Apache..
so how can I change them and use them in lighttpd ?

.htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^index\.html$ ./index.php?mdrw=on
RewriteRule ^manual\.html$ ./index.php?action=manual&mdrw=on
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)_([0-9]+)_([-0-9]+)\.html$ ./index.php?action=vthread&forum=$1&topic=$2&page=$3&mdrw=on
RewriteRule ^([0-9]+)_([-0-9]+)\.html$ ./index.php?action=vtopic&forum=$1&page=$2&mdrw=on

is it possible?

My best recommendation would be that you review the lighttpd mod_rewrite documentation and visit the lighttpd Support Forums if you have questions specific to lighttpd which are not being answered to your satisfaction here on the CodingForums.
