help with rewrite

Can someone please explain to me why this code isnt working with a rewrite:

 

RewriteRule logout index.php?method=logout

 

So if I go to http://mysite.com/logout it works fine. But if I go to http://mysite.com/logout/ (notice the trailing slash) it is not displaying the page properly. If I go to the first url a box pops up and says you have logged out. However, if I go to the second one with the trailing slash the box nevers pops up. Its not rendering the page properly for some reason. Any help is appreciated.

Its because Apache sees /logout/ and /logout as two completely different matches. To match regardless of the trailing slash use

 

RewriteRule logout/? index.php?method=logout

 

To use mod rewrite affectively you should read up on regular expressions.
