how can I redirect some links in lowercase in .htaccess?

RedirectMatch 301 ^/folder/(.*?)\.php$ http://www.site.it/folder/($1)/artista.php

($1) in lowercase

example:

from: /folder/ADAMS.php
to: /folder/adams/artista.php

:cry: :cry: :cry:

Only using htaccess is a bit tough... or at least I don't know how to do that... you should ask Apache specialists.

In cases like this I personally use PHP code... I redirect all requests to a php file which then parse the address and redirect where I want to.

Thanks MG, I found an other way.

I create this file that modify all files I want to redirect to.

Code: [Hide] [Select]

	$path = "./";

	$dir_handle = @opendir($path) or die("Can't open $path");

	while ($file = readdir($dir_handle)) 

		if($file[0]!=".")

		{

			$fp = fopen($file, "w"); 

			if(!$fp)

				die ("Error"); 

			fwrite($fp, '<? Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" ); Header( "Location: http://www.pugliabaila.it/discografie/" . strtolower(substr($_SERVER[\'PHP_SELF\'], 13, -4)) . "/artista.php" ); ?> ');

			$fp = fclose($fp);

		}

	closedir($dir_handle);

That was exactly what I was suggesting... PHP redirect. :)

Glad you solved.
