mod_rewrite (cont.)
• A regexp-based language for rewriting incoming URLs
and telling the web server to retrieve something different
• For power users only; too complex for novices!!!
• Most useful for large, highly dynamic sites
• Most efficient at the per-server level; high overhead at
the per-directory level
