in reply to Re: URI Style
in thread URI Style
post titles on the URLs, that have the form /view/some-special-interest-item.html.That's good, but improvable.This is a virtual cached URL, that say nothing about the software used or the language I use
/view is redundant, as it exposes something system-specific, see the point about cruft above. I know you use mod_rewrite behind the scenes to map it to something, and this part of the URI is actually necessary, so may I suggest renaming it /articles instead?
.html does talk about the language you use. In five years you want to serve the content perhaps in XHTML with embedded namespaces or who knows what wacky stuff comes along and the file ending is entirely unappropriate when someone saves the document locally. You're safe with leaving the ending off.
