Question

We have a geeklog managed site running at

http://bhaa.ie

We recently setup a zend application on a subdomain that manages this page

http://bhaa.ie/members/public/index.php/event/list

We’re hoping to better integrate the two domain, so that we can call this url

http://bhaa.ie/event/list

and have zend handle the request, while geeklog handles all other requests.

As i see it – we have 2 options

1: Update the .htaccess file to filter url requests between the geeklog and zend instances.
or
2: Update the geeklog index.php to include the basic zend code

I’m just wondering has anybody any experience doing this, or could recommend which path to follow?

Answer 1

If you only have a couple of URL in your ZF-based application (i.e. event/list and only a couple of others), I would go with your first solution : add a couple of RewriteRules to the .htaccess file of the geeklog website, to redirect specific URLs to the ZF-based application.

This way, your two applications remain quite separated : you don’t have any code that’s mixed between the two applications — like your second solution would imply.
