Only recently have I been subjected to the .htaccess file. For sometime now I’ve been wondering what it is used for but have never researched it. Well recently I came across a problem where I had to learn really quick on how to use the .htaccess file.
The main use that I personally would use .htaccess is for search engine friendly 301 page redirects or URL rewrites. I haven’t had much hands on in either of these areas but was intrigued to learn more about how to use the .htaccess file effectively.
I’ve done a bit of Googling and come up with a few sites that offer some interesting information on the subject. Firstly posting on my blog means I can easily reference them again and secondly it might help some other newbie to .htaccess files to save some time.
