Question on using .htaccess - El Forum - 08-03-2011
[eluser]Unknown[/eluser]
Hello:
I'm working on a code-igniter based site at http://mith.umd.edu/theatrefinder and need to change the .htaccess rules to hide some /class/function/ID paths.
Here's the problem: When clicking on the About section from the main page, the URL changes to http://mith.umd.edu/index/about. We want this to be http://mith.umd.edu/about, essentially taking out the 'index' portion of the URI. I've been bumping around http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html trying to familiarize myself with RewriteRule in .htaccess, but I find myself just scratching my head.
Anyone have any advice or tips?
Thanks,
Grant

Whoops - let me correct something:
We want the .htaccess file to direct http://mith.umd.edu/theatrefinder/index/about to: http://mith.umd.edu/theatrefinder/about
