Question

How I can rename my 1st parameter to any variable with the help of .htaccess file?

For example, with http://localhost/mysite/index.php, I want to rename index.php or any other page name to some specific name.

i.e. .htaccess returns me the following url

http://localhost/mysite/page

“page” can be any page name i.e. index.php, about.php, et cetera.

To only ‘allow’ pages with letters:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^mysite/([a-z]+)$ http://localhost/mysite/$1.php [L]

To ‘allow’ pages with any character

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^mysite/([.]+)$ http://localhost/mysite/$1.php [L]
