RewriteRule

[gevans]

I use a lot of htaccess for rewriting urls but for somereason this simple one is screwing me up

 

I want this;

 

confirmation?4196F6D8-A04E-045E-E686-05892BAC46C8

 

to point at;

 

confirmation.php?guid=4196F6D8-A04E-045E-E686-05892BAC46C8

 

For this I'm using;

 

RewriteRule ^confirmation?([A-Z0-9-]{36})$ confirmation.php?guid=$1

 

For some reason this isn't working??

Maybe the question mark is messing things up?

Maybe put a backslash before it?

It shouldn't need to be escaped at that part of the pattern, I have tried it though (it sisn't work)

 

thanks though

Try:

 

 

RewriteRule ^confirmation?([A-Z0-9-]{36})$ /confirmation.php?guid=$1

 

 

Or

 

RewriteRule ^confirmation\?([A-Z0-9-]{36})$ /confirmation.php?guid=$1

 

 

Or

 

 

RewriteRule ^confirmation\?([A-Z0-9-]{36})/?$ /confirmation.php?guid=$1

Thanks for the try, the third option was the only one I hadn't attempted and it still offered no luck. I've decided to go with a forward slash instead of the question mark now, which kind of proves taht there isn't a problem with the rewrite as it works perfectly.
