apache htaccess - trailing slash and single entry point

Question

I need to have one entry point for my application - index.php. Before, i used to have such line of code:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php [L]

Now, i need to force trailing slashes. I found out, that I can use such line:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1/ [L,R=301]

But I want to know, how can I make it work both together.

try something like

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php/$1 [L]

or

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/index.php/$1/ [L]

Why not? Thats exactly how I use it in my application: Every request ends in calling index.php and everything after the / can be read out there to do the routing... – Christoph Fink Sep 01 '11 at 11:50
Because you'll have URL like: example.com/index.php/page It's bad UI to have index.php in your URL. – Pavlo Lisovyi Sep 01 '11 at 11:53

...then remove the `R=xxx`, because thats whats triggering the "external redirect"! – Christoph Fink Sep 01 '11 at 12:00
