Is this even possible with mod rewrite

[PardDhillon]

Hi there, I’m a complete newbie to mod_rewrite but I was wondering if the following is even possible.

I have a website at http://www.bodybling.co.uk

And I have a store located on another server at: https://id505.securepod.com/bodybling.c ... ntmanager/

I want users to be able to go to http://www.bodybling.co.uk/storefront/ but be served pages from https://id505.securepod.com/bodybling.c ... ntmanager/

Is there any code I can write in the .htaccess file in the subfolder /storefront/ that will serve pages from the other site so that it looks like they are on the http://www.bodybling.co.uk?

All the pages appear after the /merchantmanager/ folder, so if a user was looking at /merchantmanager/index.php could I make it look like it was at http://www.bodybling.co.uk/storefront/index.php?

I thank you in advance for any help.

Probably not, unless your domain can use SSL as well, because as far as i know, you can't proxy https requests though http. If your server has mod_proxy (and mod_rewrite) you could try this, but it's requires twice the transfer:

Code: Select all

Options +FollowSymLinks

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^storefront/(.*)$ https://id505.securepod.com/bodybling.co.uk/merchantmanager/$1 [QSA,L]

The domain does accept SSL aswell. I have copied the code you supplied in the .htaccess file located in the /storefront/ subfolder, but it still reads the index.htm file in that folder rather than what I have written in the .htaccess file.
