I have a custom php/mysql based site and for SEO friendliness it has a section that contains php generated SE friendly html links/files.(I have sitemaps also etc)
Here's the issue:
I have a directory:
mysite/seolove/
and within that there is only an index.php that when called runs the seo engine bit and generates a nice SE index of the entire site with all links etc (it is dynamic content)
I want to call that page with mysite/seolove/index.html
so I can add it to the xml sitemap as a site summary in effect and as the top weighted link in the map. I will also add the sub links seperately (not sure if this is bad practice?)
What's the best way to accomplish this please?
At present when I call www.mysite/selove/index.php, it is just putting:
www.mysite/selove/
in the address bar.
So basically I want to force it to display
www.mysite/selove/index.html which is in turn a
redirection of
www.mysite/selove/index.php
Hope that makes sense!
thanks for your time
UNTESTED!

Will try this and post back :)
cheers
Well, unfortunately it hsa only part worked (where is JD Morgan when you need him? :) )
Basically, the URL /mysite/seolove/
is being re written as /mysite/seolove/index.php
However the index.php is not being rewritten to .html!
Is it possible to rewrite a rewrite? I guess not!
So, if I type in /mysite/seolove/index.html
I get a 404 error
It feels like this puzzle is 'nearly' solved but the final piece is missing?!
Can anyone here please fit the final piece to my re write jigsaw?!
I need /mysite/seolove/
that actually points to
/mysite/seolove/index.php
rewriting to a .html extension instead of a .php
This is my current .htaccess for this directory
Options FollowSymLinks
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0
RewriteEngine on
//***************************
Lots more working code****************//the new code//
RewriteRule list/index.php [%{HTTP_HOST}...] [R,L]
RewriteRule list/index.html /list/index.php [L]
THANKS
