interseer or InterSeer

using NC and OR is ok?

[sanuk]

Hi,

Concerning Interseer spider and mod_rewrite:
Am I right in presuming that using NC means to ignore the character case of the line?

because Interseer is visiting me with spiders in which the name is sometimes upper-case and sometimes lower-case.

now in my HTaccess to disallow spiders, I have:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^internetseer.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^InternetSeer.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Internetseer.com [OR]

so the line here under would have the same result as the 3 lines above, Yes or No?

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^internetseer.com [NC;OR]

and can I mix lines, meaning sometimes a line with [NC;OR] and inbetween some lines only with [OR]?

Thanks and Regards,
Sanuk

You ALMOST have it right!

Yes, if the syntax is correct,

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^internetseer.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^InternetSeer.com [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^Internetseer.com [OR]

will be the same as:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^internetseer.com [NC;OR]

Your problem is there is a smicolon in there: [NC;OR]

that should be a comma: [NC,OR]

I love NC, a great space saver!
