How to Remove the Page File Extension From the URL

T183539_42aa540cacdc

I'm using the lines in .htaccess file.
.......................................................................................
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /([^.]+).html [NC]
RewriteRule ^ /%1 [NC,L,R]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.html [NC,L]

........................................................................................

after adding the lines, now both url is working, like -
mysite.com/contact.html & mysite.com/contact

both URL is working but i need only the mysite .com/contact..

what should i do?

robohost

Set url forwarding 301

classy

[^.] means match anything except anything. Probably not what you want ;-)

Replace that line with this and it should mostly work:

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} /(.+)\.html [NC]
