Hi,

In Apache, I can decide to rewrite based on multiple conditions like: (totally stupid example ahead): RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(GET|HEAD)$ RewriteCond %{USER_AGENT} GoogleBot RewriteRule ^ /index.html [L]

It doesn't seem to be possible under nginx except using this lame trick:

if ( $request_method ~ (GET|HEAD) ) { rewrite ^(.*)$ /get-or-head$1; break; }

location ^~ /get-or-head/ { if ( $user_agent ~ GoogleBot ) { rewrite ^ /index.html last; } # back to normal rewrite ^/get-or-head(.*)$ $1 last; break; }

Is there a better alternative ?

Maybe with mod_perl: http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxEmbeddedPerlModule

If not, could it be possible to have the operator && and || defined in if() or at least leave the possibility to use interleaved if():

Yep this would be nice, I don't know if this is yet possible ;-)

Cheers
