Find a host that has requirements you are looking for. Which reminds me... I do allow this in my hosting packages.

If so, then ask them for information that governs their setup on your server.

Re: [PHP] clean url problem .htaccess
mod_rewrite is the best solution available to your case. more over if you are sure that your host supports .htaccess, there is very little chance that they will block mod rewrite alone. you can confirm that by phpinfo. look in apache2handler-> Loaded Modules section (this does not tell you if .htaccess is enabled/disabled) but in the worst case try using $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] instead of $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']. in either case you cannot do this with .htaccess disabled. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] clean url problem .htaccess
what if I don't have access to server to enable mod_rewrite like a hosting, is there anyway to work around? just don't want to build entire website and finally can't get a hosting to enable mod_rewrite for me.
