Rewrite all queries to not need the .php extension using a mod_rewrite RewriteRule

I'd like all queries like

http://mysite.com/something/otherthing?foo=bar&x=y

to be rewritten as

http://mysite.com/something/otherthing.php?foo=bar&x=y

In other words, just make the .php extension optional, universally.

I would do it this way. Basically, if file doesn't exist, try adding .php to it.

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [QSA,L]

Matches only paths with no extension:

RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/+)*[^\.]+)$ $1.php

Edit: In my testing, the query string gets passed on automatically. If it doesn't, you can use this instead:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)$
RewriteRule ^(([^/]+/+)*[^\.]+)$ $1.php?%1

This works:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.+$
RewriteRule ^/?([^/\.]+)$ /$1.php [L]

The idea is to make sure there's a query string (question mark plus stuff) and if so check if the stuff before the question mark has no extension and if so, append .php.

If you can change the httpd.conf and what to, you can also put:

ForceType application/x-httpd-php

in the file as it will force all the paths called to be PHP files. I think this also works with query strings.

Something like...

RewriteRule /something/(.+)?(.+) /something/$1.php?$2

would probably work.
