i think i know of a way but you can not have the file "name_xyz.avi" in the directory
involves configuring your server to set "name_abc.avi" as your 404 what is this for, i'm curious |

ErrorDocument 404 /movies/name_abc.avi
Put that in your .htaccess file. It will make any 404 in the same directory as .htaccess load the movie. |

Your instructions don't make any sense, then.

I think I've deciphered your request...
1. user wants to download http://www.mydomain.com/movies/name_abc.avi 2. name.avi does not exist in that folder (abbie: name.avi? what about name_abc.avi?) 3. i want the user to download a movie called "name_abc.avi" anyway (abbie: wtf?) 4. in the /movies/ folder there is an .avi called "name_xyz.avi" 5. user should download the "name_xyz.avi" but the name of the download should be "name_abc.avi" If you're using unix go into the folder and type this: ln -s name_xyz.avi name_abc.avi That makes a symbolic link (abc) to your real file (xyz). No .htaccess necessary. |
