- Code: Select all
ErrorDocument 404 /generate.php
Then in your generate.php script use the contents of $REDIRECT_URI to determine which URL the person was trying to get to. In your database you would then have fields linking content to the URL they affect and from that you should be able to generate the page. Then in your generate.php script do something like:
- Code: Select all
<?php
$s = $REDIRECT_URI;
$d = $DOCUMENT_ROOT;
// determine requested uri
$uri = substr($s, strpos($s,$d) + strlen($d) + 1);
ob_start(); // Start buffering output
// ... code to fetch and output content from DB ...
$data = ob_get_contents();
$fp = fopen("$DOCUMENT_ROOT/$uri",'w');
fputs($fp,$data);
fclose($fp);
ob_end_flush(); // Flush and turn off buffering
?>
So, the way it works, when a request comes in for a page that doesn't exist, generate.php checks the database and determines if it should actually exist and if so it will create it and respond with this
generated data. The next request for that same URL will get the generated page directly. So in order
to refresh your cache you simply have to delete the files.
