The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

htaccess redirect subdomain to sub dir of the root

Asked by nasbe in PHP Scripting Language, Web Development Software, Web Development

I am trying to modify my .htaccess file to allow SUB.DOMAIN.org to point to the SUB folder on the webserver under htdocs. I am using the following code but cant seem to get it to work correctly. Any suggestions as to why its not working?

##  Can be commented out if causes errors, see notes above.
Options +FollowSymLinks

#
#  mod_rewrite in use

RewriteEngine On


#  Uncomment following line if your webserver's URL
#  is not directly related to physical file paths.
#  Update Your Joomla! Directory (just / for root)

 RewriteBase /

##########Me trying to redirect to subdomain
#
# handle domain root and skip subfolders
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.DOMAIN.org
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/SUB/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \..+$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ SUB/$1 [L]

# add trailing slash to subfolders (eg abc to: abc/)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.DOMAIN.org
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} [^/]$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1/ [L,R=301]

# handle files in subfolders
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} www.DOMAIN.org
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/SUB/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ SUB/$1/ [L]

Every time I type in SUB.DOMAIN.org I get redirect to the homepage??

I am using Joomla! 1.5 on a linux server. Thanks, in advance for your help!
