stickynote427 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I'm trying to get into .htaccess more and start out mod rewrite, but I'm having a lot of issues. Currently, I'm trying to redirect the user from a flat directory (/ex/am/ple/) to a page that has GET parameters (index.php?page=whatever). So, if someone goes to visitor/page/welcome on my site, I want them to be redirected to visitor/index.php?page=welcome. Here's what I have right now: Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/visitor/page/(.+) /visitor/index.php?page=$1 However, I get a 404 error when trying to access a flat directory (because it doesn't exist). Any clues are appreciated. Thanks.

wildteen88 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Remove the / before the ^ and you rewrite rule should work.

stickynote427 Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 (Sorry this was in the wrong forum at first.) I removed the ^ before the / and it did not work.

Ken2k7 Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Give this a try - Options +FollowSymlinks RewriteEngine on RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^/visitor/page/(.+)$ /visitor/index.php?page=$1 If that fails, remove the / before visitor.

stickynote427 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 :'-) Thank you so much. I did have to remove the / before the first visitor.
