I use this .htaccess file to rewrite every .html request to counter.py
#
=================================================================================================================
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^/?(.+\.html) /cgi-bin/counter.py?htmlpage=$1 [L,PT,QSA]
#
=================================================================================================================
counter.py script is created for creating, storing, increasing, displaying a
counter for each webpage for every website i have.
It's supposed to identify each webpage by a <!-- Number --> and then do it's
database stuff from there
#
=================================================================================================================
# open current html template and get the page ID number
#
=================================================================================================================
f = open( '/home/nikos/public_html/' + page )
# read first line of the file
firstline = f.readline()
# find the ID of the file and store it
pin = re.match( r'<!-- (\d+) -->', firstline ).group(1)
#
=================================================================================================================
It works as expected and you can see it works normally by viewing:
http//superhost.gr (bottom down its the counter)
What is the problem you ask?!
Problem is that i have to insert at the very first line of every .html template
of mine, a unique string containing a number like:
index.html <!-- 1 -->
somefile.html <!-- 2-->
other.html <!-- 3 -->
nikos.html <!-- 4 -->
cool.html <!-- 5 -->
to HELP counter.py identify each webpage at a unique way.
Well.... its about 1000 .html files inside my DocumentRoot and i cannot edit
ALL of them of course!
Some of them created by Notepad++, some with the use of Dreamweaver and some
others with Joomla CMS
Even if i could embed a number to every html page, it would have been a very
tedious task, and what if a change was in order? Edit them ALL back again? Of
course not.
My question is HOW am i suppose to identify each and every html webpage i have,
without the need of editing and embedding a string containing a number for
them. In other words by not altering their contents.
or perhaps by modifying them a bit..... but in an automatic way....?
Thank you ALL in advance.
