how can i rewrite the url seen in the adreess bar. Ive seen it done on youtube where

 

www.youtube.com/inbox?message=1blablabla

 

turns into :

 

www.youtube.com/inbox

 

I have a little bit of code using .htaccess file but im not having any luck with it:

 


Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on

RewriteRule ^channel/(.*)/(.*)/recent/(.*) video.php?category=recent&chid=$1&page=$3

From my understanding (.*) means the rewrite will accept any type of input (letters, numbers, anything) If you just want letters off the top of my head I think it is ([a-z][A-Z]) but I might be wrong.

 

If you just want index.php to be rewritten to index/ it would be

RewriteRule ^index$ /index.php

 

If you want a trailing slash just change ^index$ to ^index/$
