Changing your file extension

Well there is 2 ways of doing this, both ways work.

First way:

You use code like:

[code]AddType text/html txt[/code]

AddType - Tell the server we are defining file extensions

text/html - What kind of file ( Mime types )

txt - The new file extension

Change txt to the extension you want.

If you have cPanel, you can find a list of Mime types here:

http://yourdomain.com:2082/frontend/x2/mime/mime.html

If not, then use the cPanel demo page:

http://demo.cpanel.net:2082/frontend/x/mime/mime.html

When viewing the demo, if it asks for a username and password. you can find them here


Second Way:

So, this is mod rewrite.

If you want to have a fancy file like: index.lol

You need something like this:

[code]
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^(.*).lol$ $1.php
[/code]

So if you went to wooo.lol it would render as wooo.php

Simple huh.
