I was wondering if there is anything wrong with using html and php files without extensions.
For example, if I was to upload a file with an extension, I would get to by using a URL like this:
http://yoursite.com/randompage.html
If I used a file without an extension, I would use a URL like this:
http://yoursite.com/randompage
I know that this can’t be the preferred method because it leaves the file without a way to be identified, but is there anything that would stop the site from working properly?
What you want to do is done with url-rewriting .
Basically, you will add a rewrite rule to your web server, so when he receives a request for url
yoursite.com/randompagehe will change it toyoursite.com/randompage.html. You will find a lot of examples on the web if you google for “mod_rewrite examples” or “url rewrite examples”.
