[SOLVED] Appreciate little help with getting mod rewrite to work with ?dynamic urls

[Anti-Moronic]

It's very simple what I want to do. But I'm using wamp.

 

I have this rule which works:

 

RewriteRule ^(.*)test(.*)$ /really/long/url

 

so if test is within the url it is redirected ->

 

Everything works, but if I put test in a variable like:

 

?blah=test

 

it doesn't work.

 

I am thinking this might have something to do with a php extension not enabled by default in php with wamp. Is there any reason why it wouldn't work?

 

In fact, anything with a ? in the url doesn't work, it ignores it. I have tried countless examples from the web but nothing is working.

 

Any ideas? Greatly appreciate it.
