Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Httpd Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by pctony: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/RewriteContext The comment on the change is: Flattening Project ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ + ## page was renamed from Rewrite/Context == Introduction == The Apache HTTPD Server deals with requests in discrete phases. While this is usually transparent to the user and administrator it does have an effect on the behaviour of mod_rewrite when rulesets are placed in different contexts. To oversimplify a little, when rules are placed in !VirtualHost blocks (or in the main server context) they "run" before the server has yet mapped the requested URI to a filesystem path. Conversely, when rules are placed in .htaccess files, or in Directory blocks in the main server config, they "run" after this phase has occured.
