PHP URL Routing or .htaccess mod rewrite

[meothui]

I was just wondering, If you want to rewrite the urls on your CMS would you use PHP URL Routing or simply use the .htaccess file?



Which one is better?

More Information:

1. I don't have a full understanding of mod-rewrite and htaccess rewrite rules
2. htaccess to modify urls, although I needed a a specific PHP script to rewrite the title of urls added by my CMS
3. For pretty URLs you might use a rule based routing system like mod_rewrite
4. It is shared hosting and obviously mod-rewrite, etc are working because clean url can be enabled and works properly if you enter to the domain
5. Todays post will be focused on setting up apache mod rewrite rule to control your url structure and to allow a clean way of routing requests to your controllers

i think that .htaccess is better because it is binded in apache.

3. htaccess file looks like this: # Turn on URL rewriting RewriteEngine On
4. [PT]: Pass Through: instructs mod_rewrite to pass the rewritten URL back to Apache for further processing
5. As I read the Zend Docs about routing I see that an URL (/:module/:controller/:action) gets routed, by default, to the appropriate Controller::Action()
