Hello,
I'm having trouble rewriting URLs with my .htaccess file when I connect
using a WAP 1.1 phone. I've looked around and found a number of postings
about configuring Apache for access to index.wml, but I just want to have
a rewrite no matter what browser I connect with. Any ideas of how to get
this to work or suggestions on better approaches would be greatly
appreciated.
Here's my current .htaccess:
.htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.urlAA.net$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^urlAA.net$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mm.urlAA.net$
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.urlBB:8080/myservlet/$1 [R,L]
When I connect with IE or Firefox to www.urlAA.net/m/nate, I get directed
to www.urlBB:8080/myservlet/m/nate. This then lets me download my WML
data. When I attempt to do the same with my phone (WAP v1.1), I get a 404
error.
I was able to get my phone to connect by "hacking" my .htaccess file:
.htaccess #2
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.urlAA.net$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^urlAA.net$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^mm.urlAA.net$
RewriteRule ^(.*) http://www.urlBB:8080/myservlet/m/nate [R,L]
Now my browsers and my phone can successfully access the data. However,
the "nate" part of the URL is a username field. This means I can't
hardcode it to nate in the .htaccess file because it will be different for
each user.
Am I missing something simple here?
Thank you for the help,
-Nate
