function absolute_url($txt, $base_url){
  $needles = array('href="', 'src="', 'background="');
  $new_txt = _;
  if(substr($base_url,-1) != '/') $base_url .= '/';
  $new_base_url = $base_url;
  $base_url_parts = parse_url($base_url);

  foreach($needles as $needle){
    while($pos = strpos($txt, $needle)){
      $pos += strlen($needle);
      if(substr($txt,$pos,7) != 'http://' && substr($txt,$pos,8) != 'https://' && substr($txt,$pos,6) != 'ftp://' && substr($txt,$pos,9) != 'mailto://'){
        if(substr($txt,$pos,1) == '/') $new_base_url = $base_url_parts['scheme'].'://'.$base_url_parts['host'];
        $new_txt .= substr($txt,0,$pos).$new_base_url;
      } else {
        $new_txt .= substr($txt,0,$pos);
      }
      $txt = substr($txt,$pos);
    }
    $txt = $new_txt.$txt;
    $new_txt = _;

Ignore specific subfolders in .htaccess (URL rewrite)¶

Method 1 :

  [[RewriteEngine]] on
  #
  # stuff to let through (ignore)
  [[RewriteCond]] %{REQUEST_URI} "/folder1/" [OR]
  [[RewriteCond]] %{REQUEST_URI} "/folder2/" 
  [[RewriteRule]] (.*) $1 [L]
  #

Method 2 :

[[RewriteEngine]] On
[[RewriteBase]] /
Rewritecond  %{REQUEST_URI} !^/linea21/.*$ [NC]
[[RewriteCond]] %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
[[RewriteCond]] %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
[[RewriteRule]] . /index.php [L]

(Ignore rules for linea21 sub-folder)
