I rewrite my urls to be user friendly. For example I have a page called user.php that I rewrite to /user. But a user can still use user.php. Can I redirect to a 404 if they request a page with a .php extension?

Options -MultiViews +FollowSymlinks -Indexes
RewriteEngine on


RewriteRule ^user/([0-9]+)$ user.php?id=$1 [L,QSA]

Thanks.
