As do I!  I know that PHP on Apache works fine without using any kind of rewriting as long as you have an explicit filename in the URL.  For example, the following is a perfectly legitimate URL that can be parsed from within PHP without anything done on Apache:

http://www.example.com/index.php/some/additional/parameters

If you know the location of your index.php inside the URL, then you can split off the additional parameters.  Of course, you have to have a filename inside there, but it works!  Some examples of sites running the MediaWiki software (the software that runs Wikipedia) use this as opposed to rewriting all URLs to use the wiki file, which doesn't work without a rewrite rule (because it is not recognized solely as a file).

I imagine that the implementation will be something along these lines.  Whether or not this is true for IIS, I don't know.  I suppose you could always try!

P.S.  (to the list manager) The default setting of this list is getting troublesome!  I find myself replying directly to the sender and not to the list.  Is this setting intentional?

Manu,

I know for a fact that one of the previously-stated goals on the framework site is to make the rewriter to be platform independent.  HOW this is going to happen is going to be an interesting challenge.  Maybe one of the more experienced Ziffers can elaborate or correct my assertion.

`A'isha, the wife of Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him), reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying:
Kindness is not to be found in anything but that it adds to its beauty and it is not withdrawn from anything but it makes it defective.
narrated in Sahih Muslim, Book 3, Number 6274

Hi all,

I was recently facing an issue while configuring Zend Framework with IIS. I was searching for an apache style mod-rewrite property in IIS but was unable to find any such thing. So, my question is, how can we enable the Rewrite Engine in IIS to use Zend Framework, or anything else to make it work? Any idea guys??

I Have:
1) PHP 5.1.6
2) Windows 2000
3) IIS 5.0

Thanx in advance



Regards,

Manu Goel
