URL Rewriting Posted August 1, 2004 at 12:00 am

After trying to wade through complex examples in the Apache guide, I was able to grasp the basics of Apache’s mod_rewrite capabilities with the help of a straightforward guide at HTMLSource. I wrote and tested some simple rules on the development site before discovering an unforseen interaction with my web host’s preset rewriting rules.

I think it’s time to look for new hosting. My hosting expires at the end of this month, and I’m finding myself wanting more control over the internals of my site. BlueHost and 1&1 look interesting, but I need to do more research. I’m open for suggestions.
