From 9f8ccad39aba0c4b83317741d9de2a7ca562091a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Bowen Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2008 01:49:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] I've long hated this technique, in which the hostname is prepended to the REQUEST_URI, and then munged on a second pass through. It's confusing, hard to explain to beginners, and completely unnecessary. Use RewriteCond backreferences instead. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/httpd/httpd/trunk@685415 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68 --- docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en | 15 ++++++++++----- docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.xml | 14 ++++++++++---- 2 files changed, 20 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en b/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en index c571fcbac5..b1b4d27330 100644 --- a/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en +++ b/docs/manual/rewrite/rewrite_guide.html.en @@ -47,7 +47,7 @@
