Change the DirectoryIndex based on a domain/sub-domain in .htaccess


I have a shared hosting with one domain and one sub-domain (for mobile and clients). Each domain and sub-domains has different default index pages. The hosting company told me to put everything in my .htaccess file since I don't have access to the httpd.conf.



What I want to do is this:



  1. If a user goes to domain1.com the DirectoryIndex should be: index.html

  2. If a user goes to mobile.domain1.com the DirectoryIndex should be: mobile-index.html

  3. If a user goes to post.domain1.com the DirectoryIndex should be: post.php

  4. If a user goes to vote.domain1.com the DirectoryIndex should be: vote.php



Edit: In addition, if I go to domain1.com/page/ the DirectoryIndex should be: index.html . If I go to mobile.domain1.com/page/ the DirectoryIndex should be: mobile-index.html



What can I put in my .htaccess file in order to change the DirectoryIndex for each sub-domain?



Thank You very mich

  1. <IfDefine> does not work like that. <IfDefine> only runs when apache starts. You should go with a mod_rewrite solution. view @tzakrajs answer.

    You can use this in your .htaccess file:

    SetEnvIf Host ^www\. page=www
    SetEnvIf Host ^mobile\. page=mobile
    rewriterule ^.*$ test.php?subdomain=%{ENV:page} [QSA,L]


    Simply just configure all your sub-domain using SetEnvIf and then simply let the PHP do its magic.

Why is this Javascript much *slower* than its jQuery equivalent?

I have a HTML list of about 500 items and a "filter" box above it. I started by using jQuery to filter the list when I typed a letter (timing code added later): $('#filter').keyup( function() { var jqStart = (new Date).getTime(); var search = $(this).val().toLowerCase(); var $list = $('ul.ablist > li'); $list.each( function() { if ( $(this).text().toLowerCase().indexOf(search) === -1 ) $(this).hide(); else $(this).show(); } ); console.log('Time: ' + ((new Date).getTime() - jqStart)); } ); However, there was a couple of seconds delay after typing each letter (particularly the first letter). So I thought it may be slightly quicker if I used plain Javascript (I read recently that jQuery's each function is particularly slow). Here's my JS equivalent: document.getElementById('filter').addEventListener( 'keyup', function () { var jsStart = (new Date).getTime()...

Is it possible to have IF statement in an Echo statement in PHP

Thanks in advance. I did look at the other questions/answers that were similar and didn't find exactly what I was looking for. I'm trying to do this, am I on the right path? echo " <div id='tabs-".$match."'> <textarea id='".$match."' name='".$match."'>". if ($COLUMN_NAME === $match) { echo $FIELD_WITH_COLUMN_NAME; } else { } ."</textarea> <script type='text/javascript'> CKEDITOR.replace( '".$match."' ); </script> </div>"; I am getting the following error message in the browser: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_IF Please let me know if this is the right way to go about nesting an IF statement inside an echo. Thank you.
