[SOLVED] URL Rewrite with 2 Parameters

[JasonO]

Hi,

 

My question is exactly like the question here: http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php/topic,220713.0.html

 

Unfortunatly it is solved and I can't post in that topic. The thread author originally had a problem with what was given to him, but then he just said he fixed it without actually posting what he done. I don't know how, but for some reason it doesn't work for me either (get 404 page not found error). I've tried contacting the thread author about a solution but nothing yet.

 

Basiclly I currently have this in my htaccess file

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)?$ index.php?p=$1 [L]

 

This allows me to have http://domain.com/home the same as having http://domain.com/?p=home

 

However, I need to have more parameters in the URL which I want to have like http://domain.com/home/login for example. The hidden URL would then be along the lines of http://domain.com/?p=home&p2=login

 

I've tried finding out what each symbol means and playing around but I just get 404 errors or server errors when I try them.

 

Where am I going wrong?

 

Thanks,

Jason

OK, I've got it kinda working I believe.

 

I can get the two parameters from a URL like http://domain.com/site/login and also 1 parameter if a second is not given from say http://domain.com/site/.

 

However, If I miss the trailing slash on the end of the URL off (so like http://domain.com/site), I get a 404. How would I go about geting around that.

 

This is what I have as my rule.

 

RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)?/([^/\.]+)?$ /index.php?p=$1&p2=$2

 

Thanks.

 

Edit - Done it

 

This is the Rewrite Rule I use to pass 2 parameters into a page

 

RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?([^/\.]+)?$ /index.php?p=$1&p2=$2

 

Will allow URL's like

 

http://site.com/user/login » http://site.com/index.php?p=user&p2=login

http://site.com/user » http://site.com/index.php?p=user

http://site.com » http://site.com

 

It will pass the parameters on so on the server.

 

Thanks anyway guys! I hope this post helps others. Feel free to PM me if you get stuck, and have a problem exactly like this

 

Regards,

Jason
