Want to rewrite path

Question

I have file organised like this -

I want users to be able to visit these pages without specifying the xyz.php file at the end.

What do I used for a rewrite rule that well let users visit pages using that format?

That's a common scenario. Have you looked at the [mod-rewrite tag wiki](http://stackoverflow.com/tags/mod-rewrite/info) yet? Where did you stumble on writing the rules? — mario, Aug 11 '12 at 17:56

Given that you change all your links to the www.mysite.com/cars/ford form, you need to put this in the htaccess file in your document root:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.php$
RewriteRule ^/?cars/([^/])/?$ /cars/$1/$1.php [L]

This is more complete and robust than my answer. @Jim_CS use this. – HappyTimeGopher Aug 11 '12 at 17:58
