Using “virtual directories” in a URL?

admin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 01:49:46 +0000

So I’ve wondered for awhile what this is called, when you can link to a page that doesn’t exist but use PHP (or maybe htaccess does it) to retrieve the URL and build a page based on it.

For instance, if I request "mywebsite.com/account/register", what would I have to do in order to manage the "register" part of this without actually having a folder called register?

I’ve seen websites do this, many blogging websites do this and store all kinds of data this way (/blog/2011/05/21/This_is_a_blog). What is it called? How is it done? Where should I go to read about this?

My theory would be to exploit a 404-error page, and turn around and give it a real page instead of an error. But I’m pretty sure that would still give the user a 404 error to their browser, which could cause problems. I don’t know, just thinking out loud.

EDIT: I have many times before used GET methods to accomplish this, but it just seems clunky. I would like to use the directory method I tried to describe, and possibly still be able to use GET methods with it.

Separated another script,in another folder & using another DB? For security

admin — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 01:47:12 +0000

For a website, sometime we used more than a script that separated, yes separated and dont have connection at all each other

for example
domain.com is a forum, using vbulletin
domain.com/blog is a blog, using wordpress
domain.com/store is ecommerce, using oscommerce
domain.com/article is article cms, using joomla
etc

so for security best practice, like if one of the script get hacked or get something wrong,
another script files in another folder,
and another mysql database,
is still secure

can we do that? if so how to do that actually? its looks like simple and basic, but i am still not sure how to do it

if there is tutorial link please let me know too, still cant found it
