Ive been building a dynamic website, with the content displayed chosen by the current contents of the history/bookmark token at the end of the url. eg. /main.html#DisplayReview=220
This works great, as the whole site doesn't have to be refreshed, hugely reducing bandwidth for me and speeding up the site for the users. This is, of course,whats recommended to do. My site is also, so far, completely bookmarkable this way. URLs link directly to the current state of the app....as it should. My users should be able to swap links just like any other site. Problem is, I want the site to happly work when javascript is disabled as well. If nothing else, this is needed for search-engines to index it correctly. So I needed a way for php to display the same content from the same links.... ...only to find, to my horror, php cant seem to access anything past the "#"...its as good as invisible! HELP!!! Even hiding it in a query string dosnt work ( /main?blah#DisplayReview=220.....only the blah is detected). Now, I cant change my #'s links to ?'s...as dynamic query string changes make the page reload, and it would completely break my history- support. So I'm left a bit puzzled as to what I can do. How can I keep the sites states bookmarkable, but also have those same URLs readable by php? I really dont want to resort to an extra "click to get url" unless I absolutely have too. (and besides, wouldnt that also mess up search engine indexing? ) Ive got a vague idea that .htaccess voodoo might help me out. Maybe htaccess can itself see the # data when the user requests the url, and dynamically change it to a ?. (?) I'm not hot with htaccess at all, so it might not be able to do either, then I really am stuck. I know htaccess stuff isnt strictly ontopic, but I'm asking here because it seems like a common problem people building gwt sites would have. Unfortunately googleing this stuff is useless....(# and ? arnt exactly mySQL-based search engine friendly querys...google dosnt seem to support escaping your searchs). ..so I hope someone here can help. I also hope I made myself clear. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
