How to filter multiple URLS?
Posted by bambinou, 09-02-2010, 04:09 PM |
Hello,
I am looking for a tool which could delete particular URLs when a keyword has been entered.
For example, let's say I have:
http://www.asite.com/fast-action-gadgets
and http://www.asite.com/slow-action-gadgets
if I type the word "fast" I would like to have the url from the first line removed.
Any idea if yo have heard of a freeware tools which can do that?
Thanks,
Ben

No "Software" or "freeware" tools do this. You need to use your httpd service (normally Apache, some people use Nginx) to do the rewrites. I typically use an .htaccess file do the following:
If file exist: Serve file
Otherwise: send to index.php
my index.php file includes my framework (I suggest codeIgnigter . com) that then parses the URL.

Oh, lol sorry. Use Open Office Search and replace to replace the stuff you don't want with "" (nothing)

Thanks lol
I knew I did not explain my problem properly...I should have corrected the first thread...my fault.
I am in open office now, do you know if there is a function which let me keep only particular keywords per line.
for exemple ,out of those 300 URL I would only like to keep the ones that have 1 spcecial keyword in it.
Thanks for your help,
Ben

check sed... (also, awk, grep, etc)...
example:
# echo "http://www.asite.com/fast-action-gadgets" | sed s/fast/slow/g
http://www.asite.com/slow-action-gadgets
# echo "http://www.asite.com/fast-action-gadgets" | sed s/fast\-//g
http://www.asite.com/action-gadgets
hope it helps.

You can also use the Apache rewrite engine if you're on an apache server, else the suggestion from nvieira is probably the easiest

In my view use search if you're on an apache server, else the suggestion from nvieira is believably the most comfortable
