Not Working..

[N-Bomb(Nerd)]

Hi, I have the following:

 

.htaccess:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?id=$1

 

Index.php:

<?php
echo $_GET['id'];
?>

 

Except when I do http://mywebsite.com/3f23j89 it just prints "index.php" on the page.. instead of whatever I typed after the slash..

 

When I change "^(.*)$" to "^([0-9]+)$" though.. it will display numbers.. why can't I do all digits?

try this

 

RewriteRule ^([^/-]+)$ index.php?id=$1

[N-Bomb(Nerd)]

try this

 

RewriteRule ^([^/-]+)$ index.php?id=$1

 

It's just showing "index.php"

[dragon_sa]

what about when you doe this

 

RewriteRule ^([^/-]+)$ /$1

[N-Bomb(Nerd)]

what about when you doe this

 

RewriteRule ^([^/-]+)$ /$1

 

With that I just get a 404 not found

[dragon_sa]

one more time and I am out of ideas

 

RewriteRule ^/([^/-]+)$ /index.php?id=$1

[N-Bomb(Nerd)]

one more time and I am out of ideas

 

RewriteRule ^/([^/-]+)$ /index.php?id=$1

 

Nope.  :-\

Got it working with:

RewriteRule ^([^/\.]+)/?$ index.php?id=$1

[dragon_sa]

RewriteRule ^([^/-]+)$ /index.php?id=$1

 

I use it like this

 

RewriteRule ^product-([^/-]+).html$ /products.php?colID=$1 [NC]

 

where it takes product-$var.html and changes it to products.php?collID=$var for the server and that works flawlessly, i would assume the above would work similarly.
