Time-Dependent Rewriting Description: When tricks like time-dependent content should happen a lot of webmasters still use CGI scripts which do for instance redirects to specialized pages. How can it be done via mod_rewrite<http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_rewrite.html> ? Solution: There are a lot of variables named TIME_xxx for rewrite conditions. In conjunction with the special lexicographic comparison patterns <STRING,
STRING and =STRING we can do time-dependent redirects:
RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{TIME_HOUR}%{TIME_MIN} >0700 RewriteCond %{TIME_HOUR}%{TIME_MIN} <1900 RewriteRule ^foo\.html$ foo.day.html RewriteRule ^foo\.html$ foo.night.html This provides the content of foo.day.html under the URL foo.html from 07:00-19:00 and at the remaining time the contents of foo.night.html. Just a nice feature for a homepage...

I've searched a little but didn't find anything. I'm thinking about putting something online that may use a bit of bandwidth, so I'd like to retrict access to times when the office isn't open. Ideally, I'd like to have a page displayed to people who try to hit the page explaining the situation. I could do this with some combination of cron jobs and scripts (OS is OpenBSD) but I wondered if there was a way to make it a property of a <Directory /> in the httpd.conf file. Or some other nice built-in way that doesn't resort to replacing httpd.conf and restarting Apache twice a day.
